Geometria substituta de mama baseada na retirada manual de curvas de termogramas para estimativa de parâmetros termofísicos mamários

Abstract

Thermography is a technique has been proposed as an auxiliary tool in the screening of breast cancer. These images are also used for the validation Three-dimensional numerical simulations validation. The production of a more realistic model would allow a reliable estimation of the thermophysical properties of the breast. This work aimed to format a methodology in order to develop a three -dimensional breast geometry from the curves extracted from the thermograms in the UFPE Thermographic Imaging Database.
