Research progress on medical imaging techniques for diagnosis of breast tumors
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy and the fifth leading cause of cancer-associated mortality in the world,which has become a major global health concern with huge economic,social,and disease burdens.Early diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment and favorable prognosis of breast cancer.Medical imaging techniques can provide a variety of clinical information on the morphology,structure,metabolism,and function of tumor tissues in real-time,tissue damage-free,and minimally invasive manners,which have been widely used and hold great value for breast tumor screening and early dia-gnosis.This review summarizes the advances on the diagnostic value of medical imaging tools for breast tumors,including ultrasonography,computed tomography,magnetic resonance imaging,positron emission tomography/computed tomography,and breast-specific gamma imaging.
