Three breast cancer cell lines: CAL120, EVSAT and MDA-MB-231, were cultured individually, in RRMI 1640 supplemented with 20% Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS), 100U/ml Penicillin, 100U/ml Streptomycin and L-Glutamine. The cells were cultured and maintained in an incubator at 370C supplied with 5% CO2. For subsequent experiments, the cells were further cultured till confluence, in 6 well and 96 well plates using RPMI+20%FBS.

Discussion

Breast cancer continues to be the primary cause of cancer morbidity and mortality among women. Significant variation is observed in breast cancer survival rates from one geographic area to another (Jemal et al., 2010, Curado, 2011). Interestingly, while the Middle East, along with sub-Saharan Africa and Asian countries have the lowest rates of breast cancer in the world, the incidence has been rapidly increasing over the last twenty years, as it has been with other cancers (Amoori et al., 2014). Some of the factors that play a role in early detection include improved screening practices and education (Curado, 2011). Continue reading...

The product opportunity is based on the consistent on awareness on different types of cancer with a global date set to create global awareness annually. The awareness programs and campaigns are largely aimed at advocating need for testing among patients for early diagnosis in relation to creating a cancer free environment.

Summary – Digital Mammography Machine

The new 3-D mammography machine will help to improve women’s health and save lives. According to a report by Best, “this new piece of technology has provided a 27 percent improvement in cancer detection rates” (Best, 2013). The Health authorities are happy that the day has finally arrived in the history of women’s health where help is readily available. The new Tomosynthesis technology, sometimes called the 3-D mammography, detects cancer earlier or finds cancer that may have been missed using the 2D mammography alone.

The treatment, diagnosis and radioactivity for imaging can be conducted using nuclear medicine that is a particular area of contemporary medicine. The small quantities of the radioactive substance are injected into the body by means of a number of techniques of imaging. The injected substance can then be traced using some sensing device specifically for the kind of radiation released from the substance. In cases where the diseased tissues go beyond normal surgical methods, the radiation is applied to get rid of dead tissues (Christian & Waterstram, 2013).
There are different kinds of radiation used in the field of medicine. Continue reading...
