2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The investigators hypothesize that nipple-areola skin sparing mastectomy (NASSM) performed through an inframammary incision has a superior blood supply relative to a lateral oblique incision. Moreover, by minimizing complications and optimizing aesthetic outcomes, the investigators believe it will be associated with significantly higher patient reported outcome scores. The addition of information gained by use of intraoperative laser-assisted fluorescent angiography (measured with the Spy Elite imaging device) will reduce complication rates by directing intraoperative resection of ischemic tissue and limiting the volume of immediate implant placement in instances where real time imaging would suggest compromised perfusion. These quantifiable, objective measures will justify the use of NASSM and immediate implant placement coupled with intraoperative laser-assisted fluorescent angiography in prosthetic based breast reconstruction despite longer operative times.
This prospective, one-arm study which will enroll participants with biopsy-proven DCIS scheduled for diagnostic breast MRI for preoperative staging/extent of disease evaluation as part of standard of care. Eligible participants will be consented for participation in the research study which includes a directed breast PET/MRI with 18F-FES. 18F-FES uptake of the known malignancy will be measured on the PET/MRI examination using standardized uptake values (SUV) and tumor-to-normal tissue ratios.
