Abstract

Since last 60 years, bosom (breast) tumor is the major cause of death amid females worldwide. Earliest possible detection will raise the endurance rate of patients. Premature detection of bosom tumor is big challenge in medical science. Medical studies proven that imaging modalities like mammography, thermography, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) play a vigorous role to detect breast irregularity earliest. This paper enhances the knowledge on two imaging practices, one is mammography and another is thermography. It aids to identify the limitations in existing technologies and helps to plan the new methodology.
