Breast malignancy is the major and common reasons for demise due to cancer among ladies. Primary prevention is not possible since the cause of this disease is not known. The likelihood of developing breast cancer increases with age and the majority hazardous factors contribute its growth. If it is detected in its early stage the success of treatment is more thereby increasing the survival rate. Currently various screening and diagnostic methods are available such as Breast self and clinical Examination, Mammography, Ultrasonography, Infrared Thermography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging. In many cases these methods are medically insufficient for concluding the correct nature of lesion found inside breast and are costly. It has some harmful effects like radiation, pain. A better technique with less harmful effects, pain, cost, which is portable and more reliable, is the requirement of the present society. Here an automated noninvasive novel method using electrical impedance tomography is proposed for the early detection of breast cancer.
