BREAST CASE STUDY #2 

This patient had a recent mammogram that was considered watchful for an area in the left breast.

A follow-up ultrasound of the left breast was also watchful for the same area.

The report recommended a follow-up mammogram in 6 months to monitor the finding in the left breast.

IMAGE A

A noticeable increase in heat and blood vessel activity (angiogenesis) is seen in the left breast when compared to the right.

IMAGE B

The right breast shows a normal cool thermal signal and vascular pattern.

The patient was sent back to her doctor with a recommendation for further testing with a focus on the watchful area in the left breast.

A biopsy came back positive for cancer.
