New Breast Cancer Detection Technique<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Past case records show that breast cancer<\/a> has a history dating back to the days of ancient Egypt. Flash forward to the 21st century, where five innovative protocols are showing promise in more effective detection and treatment of breast cancer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Genetic Testing<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Approximately 15 to 20 percent of breast cancer cases have a hereditary factor. Genetic testing<\/a> aids in early detection and allows women to consider preventive measures such as prophylactic mastectomy.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Molecular Breast Imaging (MBI)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      With MBI, a patient receives a low-dose injection of a radioactive chemical that is absorbed at a more concentrated rate by breast cancer cells, making them easier to spot. MBI has been shown to be more cost-effective than magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Internal Radiation<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        While traditional radiation therapy requires weeks of daily treatments, internal radiation takes a matter of only days. A small catheter-like device is implanted in a patient’s breast, where it emits a higher dose of radiation in a more focused area.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Antibody Medication<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Antibody medication disrupts the growth mechanism of certain cancer cells. Newer formulas pair antibodies with a chemotherapy element for more aggressive treatment.<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Immunotherapy for Cancer<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            In contrast with more standard treatments such as chemotherapy that attack cancer cells directly, immunotherapy<\/a> boosts the ability of a patient’s own immune system to fight tumors. Atezolizumab, a drug currently used to treat melanoma, bladder and lung cancers, has shown positive results in testing on breast cancer.<\/p>\n
