Abstract:

Male breasts mainly have fatty tissue with few ducts and stroma, in contrast to women’s breasts, which predominantly have ducts, stroma, and glandular tissue. This requires knowledge of normal male breast anatomy and physiological and pathological changes in the male breast. This article deals with normal anatomy and a spectrum of diseases involving the male breast.

Abstract:

Breast cancer is the most common cancer affecting women worldwide. Although many analyses and treatments have traditionally targeted the breast cancer cells themselves, recent studies have focused on investigating entire cancer tissues, including breast cancer cells. To understand the structure of breast cancer tissues, including breast cancer cells, it is necessary to investigate the three-dimensional location of the cells and/or proteins comprising the tissues and to clarify the relationship between the three-dimensional structure and malignant transformation or metastasis of breast cancers.

Abstract:

Microwave-based thermoacoustic tomography (TAT) and laser-based photoacoustic tomography (PAT) in a circular scanning configuration were both developed to image deeply seated lesions and objects in biological tissues. Because malignant breast tissue absorbs microwaves more strongly than benign breast tissue, cancers were imaged with good spatial resolution and contrast by TAT in human breast mastectomy specimens. Based on the intrinsic optical contrast between blood and chicken breast muscle, an embedded blood object that was 5 cm deep in the tissue was also detected using PAT at a wavelength

Abstract:

As new algorithms for microwave imaging emerge, it is important to have standard accurate benchmarking tests. Currently, most researchers use homogeneous phantoms for testing new algorithms. These simple structures lack the heterogeneity of the dielectric properties of human tissue and are inadequate for testing these algorithms for medical imaging. To adequately test breast microwave imaging algorithms, the phantom has to resemble different breast tissues physically and in terms of dielectric properties. We propose a systematic approach in designing phantoms that not only have dielectric prop

Abstract:

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed neoplasm in women in Italy. There are several risk factors, but thanks to screening and increased awareness, most breast cancers are diagnosed at an early stage when surgical treatment can most often be conservative and the adopted therapy is more effective. Regular screening is essential but advanced technology is needed to achieve quality diagnoses. Mammography is the gold standard for early detection of breast cancer. It is a specialized technique for detecting breast cancer and, thus, distinguishing normal tissue from cancerous breast tissue.

Introduction. Accessory breast is a congenital anomaly where ectopic breast tissue is found at any place other than the normal location. It is an extra tissue or a fully developed breast with a nipple. The incidence of this malformation is 0.4-6%. It is believed that this congenital malformation is associated with incomplete regression of the primitive milk streak during embryonic development. The diagnosis and treatment of accessory breasts is very important, because an ectopic breast tissue can undergo various pathological changes, as well as the normal breast tissue. Case Report.

Abstract Purpose: It is well documented that breast density is an independent risk factor for the development of breast cancer[1]. Unlike traditional mammograms, PET-CT is uniquely positioned to analyze both the anatomy and metabolism of the breast parenchyma. FDG-avidity seen on PET-CT has been shown to correspond to the proliferation and number of tumor cells, though uptake in different types of breast cancer is variable, [2,3]. High FDG activity is not specific to malignancy, however, and can reflect increased metabolic activity in physiologic tissue like brown adipose tissue [4]. Increased

In this configuration, the MR images provide breast tissue structural information for NIR spectroscopy of adipose and fibro-glandular tissue in breast. Spectral characterization performance of the NIR system was verified t

Abstract:

Breast cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women, and treatment involved invasive surgery such as lumpectomy. In the last decade, a non-invasive, non-contact high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) therapy was developed for treatment with promising results. However, its success rate depends on patient selection, tissue heterogeneities, HIFU operational parameters, and even imaging techniques. In this emerging field, computer simulations can provide us with a much-needed platform to learn, test, and deduce results virtually before conducting experiments. In this study, we use

Abstract:

Even though most local recurrences after autologous breast reconstruction occur in superficial tissue, they also occur in deep tissue in the reconstructed breast. A 49-year-old woman presented with a bloody discharge from the right nipple. Ultrasonography revealed a hypoechoic area in her right breast, which was diagnosed as ductal carcinoma in situ on histopathology. We performed nipple-sparing mastectomy and immediate reconstruction of the breast with a latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap. At 6 years postoperatively, the patient presented with a palpable mass. Ultrasonography revealed a solid

Abstract:

Breast cancer has become one of the most cancers among women in worldwide countries, as well as a leading cause of death. The use of ultrasound images in medical diagnosis and treatment of patients is critical. The success of cancer treatment and outcome is largely dependent on early detection. Imaging modalities such as ultrasonography are used to identify cancer. Ultrasound imaging is noninvasive, widely available, simple to use, and less expensive than other imaging technologies. As a result, ultrasonography is becoming more used as a cancer detection tool. Ultrasound imaging, on the other

Abstract:

Limitations caused by traditional breast cancer detection and screening techniques have encouraged researchers to investigate alternative solutions. This study examines the use of a microwave-based approach for tumor detection in breast tissue and related tumor type classification using matched-filtering. Radar-like confocal microwave imaging (CMI) method constructs the foundation of such tumor detection approach. In particular, a microwave pulse is first transmitted, then back-scattered pulses are collected. All major reflective sites in the breast tissue are detected by repeating this proced

Abstract:

Diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) offers a potential adjunct to dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI to discriminate benign from malignant breast lesions by yielding quantitative information about tissue microstructure. Multi-component modeling of the DW-MRI signal over an extended b-value range (up to 3000 s/mm2) theoretically isolates the slowly diffusing (restricted) water component in tissues. Previously, a three-component restriction spectrum imaging (RSI) model demonstrated the ability to distinguish malignant lesions from healthy breast tissue.

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer death among women; to decrease the death rate for this disease, early detection plays a key role. Recently, microwave imaging systems have been proposed as an alternative to the current techniques, but they suffer from poor resolution due to the low frequencies involved. In this paper, for the first time, an innovative millimeter-wave imaging system for early-stage breast cancer detection is proposed and experimentally verified on different breast phantoms. This has the potential to achieve superior resolution for breasts with a high volumet

Abstract:

Breast cancer, which is the most common cancer in women, is a major problem both in Poland and worldwide. Mammography remains the primary screening method. However, the sensitivity of mammographic screening is lower in women with dense glandular breasts due to tissue overlap and the effect of the glandular tissue obscuring the tumor and the fact that tumors and glandular tissue show similar X-ray absorption. Consequently, other methods are being sought to increase breast cancer detection rates. Currently, the most common and used methods are ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging and adva

Breast cancer is a main cause of disease and death for women globally. Because of the limitations of traditional mammography and ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has gradually become an important radiological method for breast cancer assessment over the past decades. MRI is free of the problems related to radiation exposure and provides excellent image resolution and contrast. However, a disadvantage is the injection of contrast agent, which is toxic for some patients (such as patients with chronic renal disease or pregnant and lactating women).

Abstract:

Shear wave elasticity imaging (SWEI) can assess the elasticity of tissues, but the shear modulus estimated in SWEI is often less sensitive to a subtle change of the stiffness that produces only small mechanical contrast to the background tissues. Because most soft tissues exhibit mechanical nonlinearity that differs in tissue types, mechanical contrast can be enhanced if the tissues are compressed. In this study, a finite element- (FE-) based simulation was performed for a breast tissue model, which consists of a circular (D: 10 mm, hard) tumor and surrounding tissue (soft). The SWEI was perfo
