Painless breast cancer scan promises accurate results in under a minute | Breast cancer claims hundreds of thousands of lives per year, but new screening methods are making it easier to detect it early
Breast cancer screening tech has come a long way in recent years, with improvements in accuracy and convenience in new methods. Now, researchers at the University of Buffalo are hoping to make it even easier with a detection technique that only requires patients to press up against a window for a…
Now, researchers at the University of Buffalo are hoping to make it even easier with a detection technique that only requires patients to press up against a window for a minute to get accurate results in 3D. "More work is needed before it can be used in clinical settings, but we’re excited about OneTouch-PAT’s potential to augment current imaging methods," said Jun Xia, PhD, a biomedical engineering professor and corresponding author of the paper. In that regard, the researchers plan to conduct more studies to spot benign lesions in scans, improve their data extraction methods, and add sensors and enhanced imaging tools for greater accuracy.
