Official Title: Evaluation of Cryoablation in the Local Treatment of Early Breast Cancer
Study ID: NCT05398497
Brief Summary: Image-guided tumor ablation is a non-surgical, minimally invasive therapy available for local therapy of some carcinomas as an alternative to surgical treatment. This study assesses whether cryoablation can be used as an alternative to surgery in cases of early invasive breast carcinoma.
Detailed Description: Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of cryoablation in the local treatment of breast cancer, through the absence of neoplastic cells (invasive or in situ). Outline 1. Core biopsy 2. Mammogram 3. Magnetic resonance imaging 4. Ultrasound 5. Tumor Cryoablation 6. Mammogram (post-cryoablation) 7. Magnetic resonance imaging (post-cryoablation) 8. Ultrasound (post-cryoablation) 9. Surgery 10. Evaluation of outcomes
