Breast Cancer Examination
A routine examination of the breast is recommended for all women to identify suspicious packages, so that the detection of breast cancer, as soon as possible. Mammography is the selection of the most common first-line breast cancer. But in some cases, a mammogram in May have missed a few anomalies, especially if the breast tissue of women is dense. Sometimes the breast tissue is dense and cancer may be similar in mammography.
Therefore, a fixed amount of labor can be considered normal breast tissue monitored with mammography, which seem to lead to a biopsy to confirm the cancer can be. But now referred to mammography cancerous tissue is lost can be identified by a gamma-ray imaging special chest new diagnostic technique. This is with a mammogram, ultrasound and MRI in a different way. The image within the limits specified radiological images are not anatomical but functional. E ‘extends far beyond traditional methods of detection of gamma ray images, because the cells begin to take action even before the anomaly, the cancer is advanced enough to be visible on a mammogram or an ultrasound. Even among women with breast cancer are diagnosed with other methods specific gamma-ray imaging of the breast may be useful as they can from other malignant lesions identified by mammography would have reached, or a physical examination.
Malignant tumors are identified in the assessment, are an important element in determining the treatment can be initiated. Sometimes, information imaging gamma-ray May is important that strong differences of treatment has to offer. Mammography is identified a major impact on the structure of types of breast cancer. Specific breast imaging gamma-ray, on the other side to monitor the insertion of a radiopharmaceutical or a dye from the cells of breast cancer. BSGI technology uses a special dye is injected intravenously. The rate of absorption of the dye in the tumor tissue and normal breast tissue varies considerably, and it is this characteristic that helps identify breast cancer. A gamma camera is used to dye and cancer, or lesions identified in the period in digital form.
The diagnostic procedure is also inexpensive compared to other methods. The woman only has to sit for the comfort and the whole process is longer than 40 minutes. Results can also be read immediately. Breast-Specific Gamma Imaging is particularly useful for the diagnosis of breast cancer in women with dense breast tissue, breast implants or scar tissue. In such cases, a mammogram can be difficult to read and gamma-ray images can be very useful. In fact, about 20 per cent of women with normal breast cancer mammogram readings. The importance of BSGI not be underestimated.
