Breast cancer imaging: a new role of Tc-99m sestamibi prone scintimammography for diagnosisof breast cancer
Mammography remians the procedure of choice in screening asymptomatic women for breast cancer. However, in patients with symptoms, other types of imaging play an important role in the detection of malignancies. The high cost and lack of availability of PET and MRI largely precludes the use in this patient population. TI-201 is nbt the imaging agent of choice because of its wash-out and redistri...
متن کاملBreast imaging technology: Imaging biochemistry - applications to breast cancer
The use of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) to investigate breast tumour biochemistry in vivo is reviewed. To this end, results obtained both from patients in vivo and from tumour extracts and model systems are discussed. An association has been observed between transformation and an increase in phosphomonoesters (PMEs) detected in the 31P MRS spectrum, as well as an increase in choline-co...

متن کاملDigital Breast Imaging Workflow.
Most breast imaging programs have replaced film-screen mammography systems with digital mammography. Other breast imaging methods, such as digital breast tomosynthesis, complement the tools available for screening and diagnosis of breast cancer. This article examines digital mammography, other digital breast imaging modalities, and the effects of these technologies on practice, quality, efficie...
متن کاملNovel breast-imaging methods.
For the past several decades, mammography has been the cornerstone of screening for breast cancer. Technology has improved greatly, as has radiologists’ skills in interpreting fi lms. Many studies have attempted to analyze the contribution of regular mammography screening to decreasing mortality from breast cancer. These studies have demonstrated varying results. In 2001, Olsen and Gotzsche pub...
