Passive Microwave Radiometry (MWR) and Mirna for Breast Cancer Diagnostics

Abstract

Breast cancer prevention is very important for a woman's health worldwide. We have demonstrated a correlation between mammography and ultrasound with diagnoses using passive microwave radiometry (MWR) and a miRNA oncopanel. While mammography screening dynamics could be completed in 3-6 months, MWR will provide us with a prediction in a matter of weeks or even days with the potential for complementary miRNA diagnostics. An early breast cancer diagnosis may be accomplished using either one of these novel techniques alone or in conjunction with more established techniques
