Comparative study assessing roleof ultrasound versus thermography in breastcancer

What is it about?

The limitations of mammography as a screening and diagnostic tool, especially for younger women with dense breasts, makes it necessary to use an adjunctive modality to cover its shortcomings. Ultrasound and thermography both have potential role in this era. We will compare the accuracy of thermography with ultrasound in breast cancer diagnosis in a clinical setting.

Why is it important?

We believe that thermography is a non-invasive, safe, and accepted method by patients; however, despite technical advances in it, its diagnostic abilities are still less than those of sonography, so we suggest that it be used as an adjunct in breast cancer diagnosis in selective situations.
