Abstract

Effect of Age on Outcome of Low Level Laser Therapy (Lllt) Treated Post Burn Immature Scars

Highlights

  • Qualitative mammography for screening and diagnostic purposes has proven to have little value in women with dense breasts and according to the Canadian National Breast Screening Study [1], provided no survival benefit for women in general

  • Using FMTVDM, a nuclear cardiologist without prior experience in molecular breast imaging (MBI) was able to measure changes in women’s breast tissue differentiating inflammatory and cancerous breast tissue from normal using the same camera used for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI)

  • Nuclear cardiologists have previously reported cases of breast cancer while conducting MPI studies. This investigation demonstrated that nuclear cardiologists can independently conduct MBI in addition to MPI studies using the nuclear cameras they currently use for MPI

Summary

Introduction

Qualitative mammography for screening and diagnostic purposes has proven to have little value in women with dense breasts and according to the Canadian National Breast Screening Study [1], provided no survival benefit for women in general. Efforts to quantify changes in tissue – including breast - associated with cancer and inflammation have resulted in the patented development of a method for quantitatively measuring changes in regional blood flow and metabolism, associated with these different types of tissue [2,3]. Following more than 1000 women and men previously studied using FMTVDM [2,3,4], an independent, private practice cardiologist, with no prior experience in molecular breast imaging (MBI) investigated if using the same equipment used for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) –it was possible to measure changes in breast tissue using FMTVDM. A quantitative myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and oncologic - including molecular breast imaging (MBI) - utility patent (FMTVDM*) previously validated at experienced MPI and MBI centers was independently tested for clinical application at a private practice Reno, Nevada cardiologists office
