PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To obtain preliminary data to support the hypothesis that contrast enhanced mammography (CEM) can reduce benign tissue diagnosis (FP3) and therefore improve positive predictive value 3 (PPV3). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Identify specific CEM characteristics that accurately classify a finding as benign, high-risk or malignant. II. Assess the positive and negative predictive values for each digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), breast ultrasound and CEM. EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES: I. To compare the outcomes/endpoints stratified by age to determine if age affects the ability of CEM to accurately define a lesion as benign, probably benign or suspicious. OUTLINE: Patients undergo contrast enhanced mammography prior to scheduled standard of care core needle biopsy of the breast on the same day or up to 3 days later.
