| dc.description.abstract | DIET is an all new approach to breast cancer screening that offers several potential advantages over current methods. Initial simulation and experimental proof of concept studies showed that it might be possible to achieve realistic screening (~1cm inclusion size detection). The main imaging and reconstruction steps are technologically challenging. Initial proof of concept experiments on silicone phantoms have been successful in identifying inclusions both via reconstruction and from disturbances in surface motion. | en |
