RISPotential of Infrared Imaging for Breast Cancer Detection: A Critical Evaluation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Screening for breast cancer to detect the disease in an early curable stage remains our most important tool to reduce breast cancer mortality, and routine screening mammography is recommended. Although the technique has ...
Generation and Thermal Simulation of a Digital Model of the Female Breast in Prone Position
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Infrared (IR) breast thermography has been associated with the early detection of breast cancer (BC). However, findings in previous studies have been inconclusive. The upright position of subjects during imaging introduces ...
Clinical Infrared Imaging in the Prone Position for Breast Cancer Screening—Initial Screening and Digital Model Validation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Breast cancer is the most prevalent form of cancer in women with over 266,000 new cases diagnosed every year in the United States. The various methods used for breast cancer screening range in accuracy and cost; however, ...
