Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the imaging performance of an investigational breast computed tomography (CT) scanner, built at UC Davis, with that of an FDA-Approved breast tomosynthesis scanner (capable of producing standard 2-D mammography and 3-D tomosynthesis images), built by Hologic, Incorporated, in a group of patients with suspected breast cancer.
