Near-IR Spectroscopy Performs Challenging Breast Imaging

Novus Media Today - A story on a new MRI/near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) method developed by researchers at the Geisel School of Medicine. "Combined NIRS and MRI is an emerging imaging approach that could benefit patients with an abnormal previous breast screening by increasing the specificity of a dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) before a biopsy," Novus reports. The study was led by Michael Mastanduno, dean of the Faculty of Arts & Sciences, who is quoted extensively in the article. Read more...
