3D Printed Breast Models in the Surgical Management of Breast Cancer

Description

To learn if providing a 3-D printed model of the breast can help breast cancer patients make decisions related to their care. During this study, some study participants will receive the 3-D printed model and some study participants will receive traditional breast imaging scans to learn if the 3-D printed model
