  1. 11. Optimization of breast tomosynthesis: Computer simulations of image acquisition and glandular dose

    Författare :Hannie Förnvik; Malmö Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :breast tomosynthesis; Monte Carlo simulation; acquisition parameters; software breast phantom; microcalcifications; breast density; glandular dose; glandular distribution;

    Sammanfattning : Breast tomosynthesis (BT) is an X-ray imaging technique recently introduced as an alternative or complement to standard digital mammography (DM) in breast imaging and breast cancer screening. In BT, a set of projection images is acquired over a limited angular range and reconstructed into a volume of slice images. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Chemosensitivity in Breast Cancer

    Författare :Kenneth Villman; Carl Blomqvist; Ulf Tidefelt; Nils Wilking; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Oncology; breast cancer; chemotherapy; anthracycline; predictive; topoisomerase; TOP2A; HER2; cyclin A; in vitro; Onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : Breast cancer mortality in Sweden is now in decline, thanks to early detection and the wide use of adjuvant endocrine therapy and chemotherapy. While hormone receptor status is predictive of response to endocrine treatment, there is no clinically useful predictive marker of a patient’s response to chemotherapy. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Obesity, Adipocytes and Breast Cancer – Insights from Translational Studies

    Författare :Malin Bergqvist; Bröstcancer - prevention & intervention; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Breast Cancer; Breast cancer risk; Breast cancer prognosis; Obesity; Adipocyte; Adipokines; CAP; Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Being overweight is becoming the new normal, and more than half of the adult Swedish population is overweight which poses a risk to public health. Overweight and obese women have both an increased risk and a worse prognosis for breast cancer, compared with women of normal weight. LÄS MER

  5. 14. The Value of Preoperative MRI in Breast Cancer Treatment

    Författare :Virginia Gonzalez; Staffan Eriksson; Sophia Zackrissson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :preoperative breast MRI; breast cancer; breast-conserving surgery; Surgery; Kirurgi; Oncology; Onkologi; Radiology; Radiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) remains controversial as an image adjunct in preoperative settings in terms of short-term benefits and there are no survival data from randomized studies. This prospective, randomized, multicentre study included 440 patients (age ≤ 56 y) with breast cancer from three large-volume Swedish breast clinics. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Improving breast cancer screening with artificial intelligence

    Författare :Victor Dahlblom; Malmö Diagnostisk radiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; breast cancer; artificial intelligence; screening; mammography; breast tomosynthesis; bröstcancer; artificiell intelligens; screening; mammografi; brösttomosyntes;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: The current standard method for breast cancer screening is digital mammography (DM). Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) can detect more cancers but is more resource-demanding, not the least due to a more time-consuming reading, which hinders the implementation in screening. LÄS MER
