This is the best summary I could come up with:
Scientists are developing a device that fits inside a bra and could monitor whether a breast cancer tumour is growing.
Researchers hope the device will provide a new non-invasive method of detecting tumour growth that patients can use “in the comfort of their own homes”.
The device, under development by Nottingham Trent University’s (NTU) medical technologies innovation facility, will use an electrical current to scan and detect tiny changes in fluids inside and outside cells in the breast.
“We are opening the door to the investigation of an alternative breast cancer detection that could be done in the comfort of a patient’s home, conserving essential hospital resources whilst still providing a viable solution to detect early signs of cancer.”
Researchers hope the device will improve the vital work of monitoring tumours, which can be difficult to do precisely, particularly in the case of those measuring less than 1cm.
“While this new technology could offer a new way to monitor the growth of breast cancer tumours and we look forward to seeing the final results, the device has not yet been tested on people and there’s a lot more we need to understand before we can consider whether or not it could be used in medical settings,” he said.
