New Mastectomy Study Findings Have Been Reported from Tokyo Institute of Technology (Cross-correlation of Confocal Images for Excised Breast Tissues of Total Mastectomy).

A recent study conducted by the Tokyo Institute of Technology aimed to develop an image artifact removal method for radar-based microwave breast imaging. The researchers utilized a hand-held radar-based breast cancer detector to measure breasts at different orientations and applied a cross-correlation method to enhance the contrast and remove clutter in the imaging results. The study found that the detection sensitivity was strongly influenced by breast density, with higher sensitivity in fatty breasts and lower sensitivity in heterogeneously dense breasts. This research provides the first detailed report on excised breast tissues. [Extracted from the article]
