โœฆ Synopsis

Flow cytometric analysis was performed on 60 patients with breast cancer to investigate the relationship between DNA histogram and the malignant potential of breast cancer. DNA aneuploidy of breast cancer tended to increase with increasing stage and degree of nodal metastasis. The percent of cells in the S phase was significantly increased in the patients with metastasis compared to those without metastasis. Patients exhibiting percent S phase value of more than 20% showed a high frequency of metastasis even when breast tumors were small (TI, < 2.0 cm in diameter). Thus, flow cytometric analysis may give additional information on biological characteristics and may be useful for predicting the prognosis of breast cancer in some patients.

DNA ploidy and S-phase estimations are widely used as prognostic indicators in treatment decisions for breast cancer patients. For accurate calculation of the DNA index there is a need to identify the GoG, diploid peak position. This study tested the reliability of peripheral blood mononuclear cells

## Abstract A numerical study of microwave radiometry for malignant breast cancer tumors is presented. The numerical results show that the brightness temperature of malignant tumors exhibits a resonant behavior versus the frequency. The brightness magnitude decreases with the tumor burial depth, ho
