Breast cancer has become a major cause of death among women. The lifetime risk of a woman developing this disease has been established as one in eight. The most useful way to reduce breast cancer death is to treat the disease as early as possible. The existing methods of early diagnostics of breast cancer are mainly based on screening mammography or Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) periodically conducted at medical facilities. In this paper the authors proposing a new approach for simple breast cancer detection. It is based on skin stimulation by sound waves, illuminating it by laser beam and tracking the reflected secondary speckle patterns. As first approach, plastic balls of different sizes were placed under the skin of chicken breast and detected by the proposed method.
乳腺癌已成为女性死亡的主要原因。女性患这种疾病的终生风险已确定为八分之一。降低乳腺癌死亡率最有效的方法是尽早治疗该疾病。现有的乳腺癌早期诊断方法主要基于医疗机构定期进行的乳腺钼靶筛查或磁共振成像（MRI）。在本文中，作者提出了一种用于简单乳腺癌检测的新方法。它基于通过声波刺激皮肤，用激光束照射皮肤并跟踪反射的二次散斑图案。作为第一种方法，将不同大小的塑料球置于鸡胸皮肤下，并通过所提出的方法进行检测。
