Tóm tắt
If detected early, breast cancer can be treated with better patient outcomes and significantly lower costs. From recent (1998) retrospective breast cancer studies, in approximately half of missed cases, a minimal sign was already visible on a prior mammogram. Using information technology such as spatial dendrograms (stealth-related technology) and repartment hierarchical identification (successive information peeling), difficult cases of spiculated and stellate tumours can be identified. The techniques are robust to noise and can reveal various layers of biophysical and biomedical differences in a tumour.
