Overview

About this study

This will be compared to the MRI and or PET/CT and with clinical and photographic determination of disease extent confirmed with clinically requested punch biopsies. The patient will be scanned with a commercially avilable GE Logiq 10 machine and then with the 25-30 MHz linear microvessel transducer for microvessel imaging. These scans will be obtained pretreatment, after 2 cylces of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and after completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radiation therapy prior to surgery.
