PILOT OF THE UTILITY OF LIPOSOMAL CONTRAST AGENTS FOR BREAST CANCER IMAGING

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者的研究机构。 该项目旨在提供初步数据，以支持将于2007年6月提交的国家卫生研究院赠款。 该基金的目标是开发一种双能量、对比增强的断层合成成像技术，用于乳腺癌的早期检测。如果获得资助，这笔赠款将包括小动物成像的试点目标，但主要集中在使用专用乳腺断层合成系统的人类应用上。该试验旨在为赠款提供概念证明，以表明乳腺肿瘤确实通过这种技术增强。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The project aims to provide preliminary data in support of an NIH grant to be submitted in June 2007. The goal of the grant is to develop a dual-energy, contrast-enhanced tomosynthesis imaging technique for early detection of breast cancer. The grant, if funded, includes pilot small animal imaging aims, but the focus in primarily on human applications using a dedicated breast tomosynthesis system. The trial aims to provide proof of concept for the grant to show that breast tumors do enhance with this technique.
