Detecting breast cancer earlier with 3D X-rays

In 2020, breast cancer was the most commonly diagnosed form of cancer worldwide, with more than 2 million cases. In women, it accounts for about a quarter of all cancer cases and is responsible for 15.5% of cancer-related deaths. The earlier the diagnosis is confirmed, the sooner the appropriate therapy can begin and the higher the chances of survival. That’s why researchers around the world are working to improve early diagnosis.
