Association between Mammographic Breast Density and Lifestyle in Japanese Women [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A high mammographic breast density is considered to be a risk factor for breast cancer. However, only a small number of studies on the association between breast density and lifestyle have been performed.

Mammographic density and breast cancer risk in breast screening assessment cases and women with a family history of breast cancer. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Mammographic density has been shown to be a strong independent predictor of breast cancer and a causative factor in reducing the sensitivity of mammography.

The relationship between oestrogen receptor-alpha phosphorylation and the tumour microenvironment in patients with primary operable ductal breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Aims: Although the role of phosphorylation of oestrogen receptor (ER) at serines 118 (p-S118) and 167 (p-S167) has been studied, the relationship between p-S118, p-S167 and the tumour microenvironment in ER-positive primary operable ductal breast ...

Fast label-free multilayered histology-like imaging of human breast cancer by photoacoustic microscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The goal of breast-conserving surgery is to completely remove all of the cancer. Currently, no intraoperative tools can microscopically analyze the entire lumpectomy specimen, which results in 20 to 60% of patients undergoing second surgeries to achieve ...

Quantifying tumour-infiltrating lymphocyte subsets : a practical immuno-histochemical method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: Efficient histological quantification of tumour-infiltrating T and B lymphocyte (TIL) subsets in archival tissues would greatly facilitate investigations of the role of TIL in human cancer biology. We sought to develop such a method. Methods:
