Breast Cancer Screening
Conditions
Brief summary
Construct a breast cancer risk prediction model based on traditional Chinese medicine four diagnostic instruments and B-ultrasound images. Ensure that the key evaluation indicators of the model reach a high level through clinical verification, so as to contribute to accurate clinical diagnosis and treatment decision-making.
Interventions
The Daosheng TCM Four-Diagnostic Instrument (DS01-A) comprehensively collects patients' TCM four-diagnostic information, covering tongue (e.g., overall color, coating color/thickness/greasiness, tooth marks, etc.), pulse (e.g., position, force, rhythm, etc.), face (e.g., overall color, luster, lip color/dryness, etc.) and constitution scores (quantifying 9 constitutions via the TCM Constitution Classification Table).
Professional ultrasound physicians use B - ultrasound equipment of the same model to accurately collect detailed parameters of breast masses according to a standardized process. These parameters include shape (oval, round, irregular), orientation (parallel, non - parallel), margin (smooth, non - smooth, with non - smooth including blurred, angular, microlobulated, spiculated, etc.), echo pattern (anechoic, hyperechoic, complex cystic - solid echo, hypoechoic, isoechoic, heterogeneous echo), posterior echo characteristics (no change, enhancement, shadowing, mixed), calcification (microcalcification and coarse calcification within the mass, calcification outside the mass, intraductal), and vascular supply (no blood supply, internal blood supply, marginal blood supply), etc.
