Brief Summary

Study hypothesis is that combining the advantages of hybrid PET/MRI and the high sensitivity/specificity of 16-alpha-18F-fluoro-17-beta-estradiol(FES), a radiolabeled form of estrogen binding to functionally active ER, the investigators could obtain a reliable, non-invasive, operator-independent, one-stage imaging method for staging LumA and ER-positive Lobular tumours.
