Current Research and Scholarly Interests

1. MRI of Breast Cancer, particularly new techniques. Currently being explored are techniques including ultra high spatial resolution MRI and contrast-agent-free detection of breast tumors.

2. MRI-guided interventions, especially MRI-compatible remote manipulation and haptics

3. Medical Mixed Reality. Currently being explored are methods of fusing patients and their images to potentially improve breast conserving surgery, and other conditions.

Clinical Trials

High Resolution 3D Diffusion-weighted Breast MRI Not Recruiting
More
The purpose of this study is to determine how well a new MRI technique called "High resolution 3D diffusion-weighted breast MRI" detects breast cancer.

Stanford is currently not accepting patients for this trial. For more information, please contact Sumita Sood, 650-723-0618.

Phase 2 Anastrozole and Vandetanib (ZD6474) in Neoadjuvant Treatment of Postmenopausal Hormone Receptor-Positive Breast Cancer Not Recruiting
More
In this study we plan to study the combination of ZD6474, a dual inhibitor of EGFR and VEGFR-2 with anastrozole in the neoadjuvant setting for patients with Stage I-III breast cancer. The aim is to overcome mechanisms of resistance and simultaneously block multiple critical signaling pathways known to stimulate breast cancer.

Stanford is currently not accepting patients for this trial. For more information, please contact Marcy Chen, 6507238686.

Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation Following Lumpectomy for Breast Cancer Not Recruiting
More
To determine whether an accelerated course of radiotherapy delivered to the lumpectomy cavity plus margin using IORT as a single dose, intracavitary brachytherapy with the MammoSite device over 5 days, partial breast 3-D CRT in 5 days, or stereotactic APBI over 4 days is a feasible and safe alternative to a six and a half week course of whole breast radiotherapy. The study will measure both short and long-term complications of radiation treatment, short and long-term breast cosmesis, local rates of in-breast cancer recurrence, regional recurrences, distant metastases, and overall survival.

Stanford is currently not accepting patients for this trial. For more information, please contact Sally Bobo, 6507361472.
