“…Breast cancer is the most common of all cancers and is the leading cause of cancer deaths in women worldwide accounting for >1.6% of deaths and case fatality rates are highest in low-resource countries. 1 A recent study of breast cancer risk in India revealed that 1 in 28 women develop breast cancer during her lifetime. This is higher in urban areas being 1 in 22 in a lifetime compared to rural areas where this risk is relatively much lower being 1 in 60 women developing breast cancer in their lifetime.…”

BACKGROUND Breast cancer is the most common cause of cancer deaths in women worldwide. As early detection can decrease the deaths due to breast cancer, high sensitive and specific tests are necessary to evaluate breast lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS 80 patients with complaint of pain or lump in the breast or nipple discharge were evaluated by mammography, sonomammography and real-time elastography. Imaging studies were compared with the FNAC/biopsy of lesions.

Cancer leads to most deaths worldwide, and breast cancer isa leading disease that causes death among women. This disease is unique in the way that once treated, can recur in some cases. Individuals are unable to identify their condition before it becomes dangerous. Extracting significant predictive features of breast cancer is an important and risky job for further study. Researchers have applied data mining techniques in medical science. Several authors suggest that a single method doesn't resolve issues in diagnosing problems, and a hybrid model is desirable. In this paper, the authors propose an integrated approachto avoid Type 1 and 2 errors in predicting recurrence. They identify important and contradicting variables and consider them for inclusion and exclusion, respectively, to revise the dataset. The evaluation of findings of crucial methods, using original and revised datasets, widens the choice of identifying the technique with higher accuracy. The results show that the accuracy improves with the selection of variables restricted to the ones identified as relatively significant, and the dataset revised after elimination of contradicting variables.

Background: Cancer is the leading cause of death in developed countries and the second leading cause of death in developing countries. In India around 555,000 people died of cancer in the year 2010. In India the average age of the high risk group in India is 43-46 years unlike in the west where women aged 53-57 years are more prone to breast cancer. The objectives of the study were to study the socio-demographic profile of Breast cancer patients attending tertiary care centre and to study the type, site and at what stage Breast cancers are being reported. Methods: Hospital based Cross-Sectional Study, Carried out over a period of one year from November 2013 to October 2014. After obtaining the written informed consent from the patients, they will be enrolled in the study. A detailed pre-designed & pre-tested proforma is used to collect information on socio-demographic profile. All diagnosed Breast cancer patients are included in the study. Results: Total of the 81 Breast cancer patients, 97.5% were female and 2.5% Male. And 58.01% were in the age group of 40-60yrs, 43.2% were graduates by education, 49.4% were housewives. 86.4% belonged to upper and upper middle class (class I and class II of BG Prasad's). 8.6% shows positive family history. 67.9% were presents as Lump in the breast. 39.5%were more than one month duration of symptoms. 72.8% were left sided breast cancer. 90.1% were infiltrative ductal cancer. 33.3% were in cancer stage II. Conclusions: The age for breast carcinoma was more in fifth and sixth decade of life in our Patients. Lump was the most dominant clinical presentation where majority of the patients were in cancer stage II.
