The goal of this clinical research study is to test if a short breast MRI scan (about 10
minutes) can be used for breast cancer screening in high risk people and to learn if it is as
effective as a routine breast MRI scan (30-60 minutes).

If you agree to take part in this study, you will have the short breast MRI scan (the scan
for research purposes) with contrast on a different day than your scheduled routine MRI
screening scan with contrast. You will have your routine scan the first day and the research
scan at least 1 day after. The research scan will take about 10 minutes to complete.

After your short breast MRI scan is completed, you will complete a questionnaire about your
comfort level and experience of the research scan. It should take about 10 minutes to
complete the questionnaire.

This is an investigational study. The short breast MRI is considered investigational.

Up to 200 participants will be enrolled in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.
