Diffuse Optical Tomography (DOT) is an innovative, non‐invasive imaging modality that exploits near‐infrared light to probe the functional properties of breast tissue. By measuring optical parameters ...

In breast cancer, a biopsy is the only diagnostic procedure that can determine if a suspicious lump or area is cancerous. However, in the U.S., between 75% and 80% of breast biopsies are benign. A ...

Optical phantoms and tissue-mimicking materials have emerged as essential tools in the validation, calibration and optimisation of biomedical imaging systems. By replicating the optical and sometimes ...

Ultrasound is widely used in breast cancer diagnosis. While it can effectively show that a lump is filled with fluid – indicating it is unlikely to be cancer – it cannot reliably determine whether a ...
