The Association between Breast Tissue Optical Content and Mammographic Density in Pre- and Post-Menopausal Women
Mammographic density (MD), associated with higher water and lower fat content in the breast, is strongly related to breast cancer risk. Optical attenuation spectroscopy (OS) is a non-imaging method of evaluating breast tissue composition by red and near-infrared light transmitted through the breast...
