Tomographic technique applied to breast cancer diagnosis
2013
Universidade de São Paulo, Ribeirão Preto, Brazil
A computational study to test whether topographic Rayleigh to Compton scattering ratio can be used in human breast cancer diagnosis. Several parameters are studied to evaluate the technique, showing that the contrast of the images depends on how they are adjusted. Also, the statistical noise was important, but without concerning influence in the final quality of the images. Overall, the results show that this technique could, effectively, be used s a complementary tool in breast cancer diagnostics.
