Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for breast cancer translates into better surgical outcomes. MRIs may help ensure that as little healthy tissue is removed as is possible and may help prevent the need for additional surgical procedures.

You may qualify if:
- Newly diagnosed breast cancer patients
- Breast cancer patients identified as conservation candidates by their surgeons
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with a history of prior breast cancer treatment (recurrence)
- Patients with breast cancer diagnosis during pregnancy (women who could bear children must have a negative pregnancy test before beginning this study)
- Patients with documented sensitivity to gadolinium (contrast agent used during MRI)
- Patients who weigh more than 350 pounds (weight limit on MRI machine)
- Patients who receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy
- Patients with renal insufficiency (serum Cr \> 1.5) due to the danger of nephrogenic systemic sclerosis with the administration of Gadolinium
