This trial studies photoacoustic imaging of the breast in patients with breast cancer and healthy subjects. Dense breasts typically reduce the sensitivity of a mammography and also is associated with a higher risk of breast cancer. Photoacoustic tomography combines light and sound to provide more information about breast tissue.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To identify photoacoustic features of breast malignancy and treatment response OUTLINE: Participants undergo photoacoustic imaging of the breast over 30 minutes. At subject's discretion, imaging may repeat for a total of 10 studies, each in a separate day.
