Breast Cancer Treatment – Blog
If you are a breast cancer patient, you may have noticed that your skin has become more or less sensitive than before, particularly in your breast region. This occurs as a result of certain breast cancer treatments such as chemotherapy,
A recent study published in the ‘Journal of Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery’ reported that implant-based reconstruction does not increase the risk of persistent pain after breast cancer surgery (PPBCT) when compared to other surgical procedures or mastectomy alone. Implant-based
We are well-aware of the fact that early and accurate diagnosis of breast cancer can reduce the risk of mortality to a great extent. This is possible with regular non-invasive methods of breast cancer screening. Thermography is one such method.
A study published in the ‘Journal of the National Cancer Institute’ found that women with breast cancer gene mutation have the same or better survival as women without mutation. The study was originally aimed at discerning cancer-specific mortality among carriers
Inflammatory breast cancer is a rare and aggressive form of breast cancer, which blocks the lymph vessels in the breast skin. It presents with typical symptoms of inflammation such as redness and swelling, causing the breast to look inflamed. Most
Research has revealed that women with type 2 diabetes are at an increased risk of developing breast cancer. Diabetes is characterized by insulin resistance, which leads to decreased levels of estrogen, increasing the risk of cancer in the breast and
Light at night may increase the risk of breast cancer A recent study published in the journal ‘International Journal of Health Geographics’ showed that indoor and outdoor exposure to artificial lighting such as light-at-night (LAN), affects the breast cancer risk,
A new study published in the ‘Journal of Clinical Oncology’ showed that exercise reduces cancer-related brain fog and cognitive decline known as ‘chemo brain’. Physical activity has long been a promising intervention for improving mental sharpness and general cognition. This
A recent study published in the Journal of Healthcare Engineering used Artificial Intelligence algorithms to analyse ultrasound images for the diagnosis of breast cancer axillary lymph node metastasis. Breast cancer is a disease in which the cells of the breast
Robust Artificial Intelligence Tools May Predict Future Breast Cancer Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s (MIT) Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) created a new deep-learning artificial intelligence model that can better predict if
