The clarity of signals in systems such as radar, sonar and even radiography could give much more clarity in detection of breast cancer by using stochastic resonance (SR), which are used in medical clinics to detect signs of breast cancer, according to a Syracuse University research team.
The study distinctly improved the system's ability to correctly identify precancerous lesions, plus a 36 percent reduction in false positives.
Cryoablation is a Safe Procedure for Breast Cancer Patients
Ultrasound-guided cryoablation of small breast cancer may be a safe procedure associated with minimal morbidity and high patient satisfaction

"We see a broad spectrum of applications for this technology. If a system's performance is unsatisfactory, we add noise to the system based on a specific algorithm that can significantly improve system performance," said research assistant professor Hao Chen.
While the current focus of the research group is on medical uses of stochastic resonance, other applications are expected in enhancing audio, video, geophysical, environmental, radar and other signals.
Biological Differences in Breast Cancer
A new study suggests that true biological differences are exist in breast cancer by ethnicity.
