| Abstract | Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women in the United States, yet many individuals face barriers to routine screening due to limited access, high costs, and discomfort. While mammography is the clinical standard, it is radiative and less effective for younger women and those with dense breast tissue. In response, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration now requires that patients be notified about their breast density and advised that additional imaging methods may improve c |
