Scientists develop new imaging method for improved breast cancer treatment
The method could reduce the need for invasive tissue sampling and lead to more optimal treatment of individual patients.
Scientists have developed a simple and non-invasive imaging method for defining appropriateness of breast cancer treatment which is as accurate as the current techniques.
The method could reduce the need for invasive tissue sampling and lead to more optimal treatment of individual patients, researchers said. Measuring the growth factor HER2 (human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2) is an important tool for deciding correct treatment in breast cancer, researchers said. Read more.
