Researchers fine-tune diffuse optical tomography for breast cancer screening
EurekAlert, 10/07/09
University researchers are working to make the physical pain and discomfort of mammograms a thing of the past, while allowing for diagnostic imaging eventually to be done in a home setting. The group is fine–tuning Diffuse Optical Tomography to create high–resolution images from a scattering of infrared and visible light for the early detection of breast cancer. While the method is less expensive, safer and more comfortable than X–rays used in mammograms, the problem has been generating a strong enough resolution to detect smaller breast cancers.
