Imaging Breast Density: Established and Emerging Modalities.
Mammographic density has been proven as an independent risk factor for breast cancer. Women with dense breast tissue visible on a mammogram have a much higher cancer risk than women with little density. A great research effort has been devoted to incorporate breast density into risk prediction models to better estimate each individual's cancer risk. In recent years, the passage of breast densit...
متن کاملConventional Modalities and Novel, Emerging Imaging Techniques for Musculoskeletal Tumors.
BACKGROUND Imaging of musculoskeletal tumors requires a multimodality approach and includes radiography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS Topics related to primary bone and soft-tissue tumors are reviewed. The fundamental imaging principles are discussed as well as the applications of emerging imaging modalities. RESULTS MRI is the preferred technique ...
متن کاملMathematical Methods in Emerging Modalities of Medical Imaging
Computerized tomography (CT) is a major method of biomedical imaging, as well as of industrial nondestructive testing, geophysics, and other areas [20, 35, 36]. Various modalities have been developed since 1960s, including for instance the standard by now X-ray clinical “CAT scan”, MRI, Optical, Ultrasound, and Electrical Impedance Tomography [25]. All of these techniques have advantages and de...
متن کاملCurrent and Future Lymphatic Imaging Modalities for Tumor Staging
Tumor progression is supported by the lymphatic system which should be scanned efficiently for tumor staging as well as the enhanced therapeutic outcomes. Poor resolution and low sensitivity is a limitation of traditional lymphatic imaging modalities; thus new noninvasive approaches like nanocarriers, magnetic resonance imaging, positron-emission tomography, and quantum dots are advantageous. S...
متن کاملHepatobiliary imaging: imaging modalities.
Imaging modalities are a major part of the diagnosis and follow-up to therapy of hepatobiliary disease. Changes of the liver, spleen, gallbladder and pancreas can be assessed by a variety of highly technical and evolving methods. The purpose of this paper is to review briefly some diseases of the hepatobiliary tree and pancreas and how they may be diagnosed through imaging modalities. Hepatic d...
