| Abstract: | In conventional X-ray mammography, the presences of a small lesion/tumor at the early stage of cancer are not definitely detected because of the complex anatomy of the breast tissues. On the other hand, the low resolution image produced by conventional scinti-mammography does not differentiate between very small benign and malignant tissues. Successful development of Mammary gland Specific Gamma Imaging System (MSGIS), a kind of gamma camera system, may lead to the early detection of breast cancer. A low cost such a camera system is being developed using electron multiplying CCD (EMCCD) as the detector. |
