What this trial is about
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if robotic ultrasound screening works as well as or better than traditional sonographer-led screening for detecting breast cancer. It will also explore how well participants follow recommended post-screening care. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does robotic ultrasound screening detect more cases of breast cancer compared to traditional sonographer-led screening? How well do participants follow up on recommended care after robotic ultrasound screening? Researchers will compare robotic ultrasound screening to traditional sonographer-led screening to see if robotic ultrasound works effectively for breast cancer screening. Participants will: Receive a breast ultrasound performed either by a robotic system or a human sonographer. Undergo follow-up management based on their BI-RADS classification.
