A Review of Imaging Methods and Recent Nanoparticles for Breast Cancer Diagnosis

Abstract

Breast cancer is the foremost common in women, and its early diagnosis will help treat and increase patients' survival. This review article aims to studies on recent findings of standard imaging techniques and their characteristics for breast cancer diagnosis and recent nanoparticles (NPs) which are used for breast cancer detection. Herein, The search was performed in the literature through scientific citation websites, including Google Scholar, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science until May 2023. A comprehensive study on different imaging modalities and NPs for breast cancer diagnosis is reviewed, and their successes, challenges, and limitations are discussed.
