Dr. Peter Littrup, professor of Radiology, Urology and Radiation Oncology and director of the Image Guided Therapy Program at the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute, Wayne State University, discusses new pioneering breast cancer detection and treatment equipment. Computerized Ultrasound Risk Evaluation (CURE) is an advanced system that uses ultrasound and thermography to detect breast cancer in women. \"The CURE gives us a nice and clear image of lumps in the breast which helps us to characterize cancer from non-cancer. Most women experience such lumps which are not necessarily cancer. As a result, they end up with oncologists taking sections of the lump and ugly scars on the breast. The CURE, on the other hand, gives images that clearly defines what are cancer and non-cancer lumps. Such tests also cost a fraction of today\'s conventional methods,\" Littrup says.
