Inclusion Criteria

  • Histologic diagnosis of breast cancer with documentation of ER/PR/HER2 status - Radiographic evidence of stage IV extracranial diease having progressed past first line therapy in HR+/HER2- patients - Radiographic evidence of stage IV extracranial disease in TN and HER2+ patients - Age ≥ 18 - Life expectancy ≥ 6 months - Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0 to 2 - Patients must be able to understand and the willingness to sign an informed consent for study procedures - Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for the duration of the study

Exclusion Criteria

  • Prior diagnosis or treatment of brain metastases or leptomeningeal disease - Patients with prior history of non-breast cancer malignancies should have no evidence of disease ≥ 2 years - Neurologic symptoms warranting standard screening brain MRI in the judgement of the treating physician at time of enrollment - Indications warranting brain MRI for other neurologic conditions at time of study entry - Contraindication towards MRI imaging with contrast - Chronic kidney disease stage IV or V or end stage renal disease
