Emerging Research Heralds New Era Of Breast Cancer Management
Abstract:
She finds that current research in the fields of radiology, drug therapeutics, and vaccine development has great potential to change breast cancer management. In radiology, 3-dimensional digital mammography, color doppler ultrasonography, and other more sophisticated technologies, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), are being refined to more accurately identify the size and location of tumors, and to distinguish between benign and malignant lesions. The use of nanotechnology may provide safer imaging that capitalizes on our growing knowledge of specific genes associated with cancer.
