tailieunhanh - Mammography and Beyond: Developing Technologies for the Early Detection of Breast Cancer

Breast cancer remains a leading cause of cancer death among women in the United States. More than 180,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer are diagnosed each year, and more than 40,000 women die of the disease. Recent years, however, have seen improvements in survival attributed to better treatment and earlier diagnosis. Research efforts have been directed toward better treatment, preventive strategies, and early detection. Although mammography has been the mainstay of early detection, its limitations are well recognized and the search for more effective technologies for early detection has been receiving increased attention | Mammography and Beyond Developing Technologies for the Early Detection of Breast Cancer INSTITUTE OF MEDICINE NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL Mammography and Beyond Developing Technologies for the Early Detection of Breast Cancer Committee on Technologies for the Early Detection of Breast Cancer Sharyl J.
