This early phase I studies how well a new 3D ultrasound (3D-US) imaging technology works in evaluating axillary lymph nodes in patients with breast cancer. Ultrasound uses high-frequency sound waves to generate images of the body.

Ultrasound Imaging
Early Phase 1
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Conducting a pilot study to optimize the in vivo performance of the newly developed three-dimensional (3D)-ultrasound (US) technology. II. Evaluate the performance of the new 3D-US technique in differentiating benign from malignant axillary lymph nodes (ALNs). III. Compare the performance of the new 3D-US method with conventional two-dimensional (2D)-US for localizing the clipped ALNs. OUTLINE: Patients undergo 3D-US on study. Patients who have an ALN clip placed and undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy undergo imaging of the clipped node before surgery.}}
