Evaluation on Phantoms of the Feasibility of a Smart Bra to Detect Breast Cancer in Young Adults.

摘要: Breast cancer is the most common observed in women. Although mammography a recognized method, it remains ionizing and cannot be used routinely or young adults, leaving up to two years between diagnoses. Prior validation on human subjects, this study aims validate phantoms feasibility of quantifying breast density detecting tumors using smart bra Six with various densities seven volumes modelized tumor were prepared measured bra, including an electrophysiological module. There was significant difference “healthy phantoms” “tumor P(Student) = 0.008 (Shapiro–Wilk p 0.846, samples follow normal distribution; Fisher variance test, 0.287). In addition, seems indicate possibility discriminating types tumorous healthy tissue high breast. However, new large sample subjects will required generate models, resistive, capacitive, other sensor parameters versus reference data collected from imaging.
