通过乳房X光检查早期发现乳腺癌并结合辅助治疗有助于降低乳腺癌死亡率。乳房X线摄影仍然是乳腺癌筛查的“金标准”，但受到组织重叠的限制。已经开发了数字乳腺断层合成摄影和最近的专用乳腺计算机断层摄影，以减轻组织重叠问题。然而，所有这些模式都依赖于X射线衰减对比度来提供解剖图像，并且正在努力开发和临床转化替代模式。这些新兴的方式可以提供新的对比机制，并可能提高病变检测和诊断。在这篇文章中，这些新兴的方式进行了讨论，重点是技术，已先进的体内临床评价阶段。(C)2018爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
Early detection of breast cancers by mammography in conjunction with adjuvant therapy has contributed to reduction in breast cancer mortality. Mammography remains the "gold standard" for breast cancer screening but is limited by tissue superposition. Digital breast tomosynthesis and more recently, dedicated breast computed tomography have been developed to alleviate the tissue superposition problem. However, all of these modalities rely upon x-ray attenuation contrast to provide anatomical images, and there are ongoing efforts to develop and clinically translate alternative modalities. These emerging modalities could provide for new contrast mechanisms and may potentially improve lesion detection and diagnosis. In this article, several of these emerging modalities are discussed with a focus on technologies that have advanced to the stage of in vivo clinical evaluation. (C) 2018 Elsevier Inc.
