MRI-based Approaches for Multi-parametric Model to Early Predict Pathological Complete Response to Neoadjuvant Therapy in Breast Cancer

The purpose of this clinical research is to evaluate the accuracy of a multi-parametric model based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in predicting pathological complete response (pCR) after the first cycle of neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) given to patients with locally advanced breast cancer, thus allowing early chemotherapy regimen modification to increase number of patients achieving pCR or save patients from toxic effects of ineffective chemotherapy.
