Most women are familiar with mammography as our “gold standard” for detection of breast cancer. However, there are other tools that women can add to their arsenal. One of the most effective tools for the detection of breast is in self-examination (BSE). However, BSE is most effective when women are properly trained in the procedure, then a follow-up annual clinical breast examinations (CBE) by their doctors.
In 2000 a University of Toronto study, approximately 20000 for cancer. Both are blood tests that measure a certain protein in blood may indicate that the cancer. The AMAS has been around for several years while NMP test was not available until very recently. Clinical trials are ongoing in this area.
Another tool that may detect an issue early digital infrared thermal imaging or DITI. In 1982, the FDA approved thermography as a supplementary tool for the detection of breast cancer. DITI measures heat emitted by the and an accuracy of 1/100th of one degree. DITI examines the physiology, NOT structure. As such, DITI can monitor the health of the breasts over time and alert a or doctor to a development problem, maybe before capital can be seen on X-ray or palpation clinic. There is no test as the density of the breast. DITI is a non-invasive test that does not emit radiation.
