The breast consists of glands called lobules that are capable of producing milk. This milk is carried through thin tubes called ducts to the lobules or the nipples. The breast tissue also contains fat and connective tissue as well as blood vessels and lymph nodes. Thus breast imaging is the technique that is used to examine the breast by providing the detailed representation of it on computer for lumps or changes in size or shape. Hence, this technique aids in the early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer.
Market Dynamics
Upsurge in prevalence of breast cancer is anticipated to fuel growth of the breast imaging market. Breast cancer can occur both in men and women. It is majorly reported in females as compared to men. According to the National Cancer Institute coordinates the U.S. National Cancer Program and is part of the National Institutes of Health stated that around 100 times more new cases of breast cancer were reported in women than in men annually.
Furthermore, according to the American Cancer Society in the US in 2021, there were estimated 2.8 thousand cases of invasive breast cancer diagnosed and 2,650 cases were diagnosed in men and an additional 49,290 cases of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) diagnosed in women.
Moreover, supportive awareness initiatives by Non-governmental organizations will help in spreading awareness about the risk factors, preventive measures, and early diagnosis of breast cancer. For instance, On April 02, 2022, a special breast cancer awareness campaign “Jeeto” was launched by various organization in Punjab, India. As part of the initiative, awareness seminars will be conducted at educational institutes and educational pamphlets will be distributed.
