In the project I am involved with we are trying to simulate breast and breast cancer tumours. The simulations can assist and support clinical research, by predicting treatment plans and diagnostic tools in breast cancer screening. In addition, we try to assess the growth rate of tumours in women in Sweden, in order to identify which tumours that are less aggressive and where unnecessary interventi

LUCI- Lund University breast Cancer Imaging group LUCI is an interdisciplinary research group with members covering expert areas in diagnostic radiology, radiography, medical radiation physics and engineering. Cancer imaging is a growing field with screening programs for secondary prevention through early detection and advances in therapeutics as key drivers. Since primary prevention strategies ar

The idea in this project is that malignant tumours can be distinguished from benign lesions and normal tissue using "mechanical imaging". Mechanical imaging of the breast is done by measuring the stress at the breast surface as the breast is compressed. Malignant tumours are generally stiffer than normal, benign breast tissue and will result in a higher stress at the breast surface. Knowing which

My research focuses on a person-centered perspective in the context of cancer screening. The main goal is to strengthen health literacy related to cancer screening among individuals in society, promote informed decision-making, and foster partnerships in the development of next-generation cancer screening, thereby advancing equity in screening, health autonomy, and social justice (Figure 1, WP1-3)

In a pioneering project, we are using pressure sensors to investigate and improve breast imaging. Mechanical imaging can be described as using pressure sensors to investigate the surface pressure of a compressed object. From the surface pressure, or stress, the local stiffness can be estimated. This is both useful and convenient in breast imaging: the breast is compressed during mammography, and b

With a unique database of images we are investigating the use of artificial intelligence in breast imaging. Progress in Artificial Intelligence – AI – is rapid in many medical fields. In breast imaging, AI has mainly been used to improve CAD – computer assisted detection. Traditional CAD indicates suspicious areas on the mammogram, but is ineffective in screening as excessive marks distract reader

My name is Ann-Sofi Sjöqvist, and I am a registered radiographer, MSc and doctoral student. I work in Malmö at the Department of Medical Imaging and Physiology Skåne university Hospital and have been working with MRI since 2004. Between 2007 and 2011 I worked at Hvidovre Hospital in Denmark at the DRCMR department and there is where my research interest awoke. In Denmark I enrolled for a master pr

Women with high breast density have an increased risk of breast cancer. At the same time is mammography less effective in finding an existing cancer in these dense breasts. Mammography creates a 2D image of a 3D structure which has the potential to result in superimposing tissue, hiding lesions of interest. Tomosynthesis is an upcoming method for 3D screening with the potential of improving the ef

Increased breast density is an established strong risk factor for breast cancer. However, its prognostic potential is elusive. Some studies have reported worse outcome for women with dense breasts, while most have not found an association. Mammographic tumour appearances are related to tumour characteristics. In my first project we saw that spiculated tumour appearance is associated with favourabl

My PhD project is a result of an international collaboration between Lund University and Siemens Healthineers. The focus with the project is investigating the possible benefits of synthetic mammography (SM) as supplemental imaging technique to digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in a screening setting. The goal of using SM is to add additional information to the radiologist and help improve decisio

We investigate the possibilities to use artificial intelligence (AI) to improve breast cancer screening with either standard digital mammography (DM) or digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), which can be seen as a kind of 3D mammography. Today DM is used for breast cancer screening. In order to detect as many cancers as possible, each image is read by two specialised breast radiologists. DBT can fin

Project description: DBTMI is motivated by a challenge of underdiagnosis and false positives (FPs) in breast cancer healthcare. Mammography screening reduces mortality by early cancer detection. It is limited by FPs and unnecessary biopsies, with related complications, anxiety, and burden on the healthcare system. MI maps local pressure on the breast compressed during x-ray exam. Increased pressur

Project description: Women with a high risk for breast cancer are defined as having (i) a life-time risk of a new primary breast cancer >20%, based on the prevalence of hereditary gene mutation (BRCA1, BRCA2 etc.), (ii) a positive family history, or (iii) previously diagnosed breast cancer before 50 years of age. High-risk patients have a higher incidence of breast cancer, with lesions appearing e

The purpose of this project is to develop and evaluate three non-invasive examination methods for the diagnosis of breast tumors, namely photoacoustics, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and ultrasound-based tissue characteristics. It is our hope that the methods will be used for primary diagnostic of breast cancer, planning of breast cancer surgery but also to evaluate the given preoperative cance
