4D Breast Imaging for Personalized Breast Cancer Treatment
The next major step forward in the fight against breast cancer will be the introduction of personalized treatment. Such a precision medicine approach would maximize the rate of complete response, minimize ineffective therapy and morbidity, and eliminate the need for localized breast cancer surgery. To achieve this, I will create a novel functional imaging modality, 4D dynamic contrast enhanced dedicated breast computed tomography (4D DCE-BCT), capable of characterizing every different genomic, molecular, and physiologic region present in a breast tumor. 4D DCE-BCT will involve putting together the hardware necessary for the continuous acquisition of x-ray breast projections with advanced…
