Project Two

Breast Clinic and Clinical Trial  

Project Objectives:

  1. Establish infrastructure for a breast imaging clinic: physical infrastructure, to standard of a health facility, human resources and procedures for person‐ centred interactions with the research trial. 
  2. Develop and implement a study protocol (recruitment to post imaging) that is co‐designed with consumers. 
  3. Compare the effectiveness of PCT with standard care (FFDM and/or DBT) (Phase 2, challenge component to trial). 
  4. Establish a clinic for stratified screening and assessment.
    • We recognise that the project objectives are informed and in parallel with the Optimisation Project team in our 5th objective: 
  5. Evaluate the effectiveness of PCT for human trial, as related to established test such as ROC for a range of pathologies and MBD (through specimen imaging).
