This health screening product can be used for preventative breast cancer examination at home or in a medical setting to offer an aid in the diagnosis of breast lesions at an affordable cost. The BREAST-i™ is CE certified and female clinical trials of the product have successfully identified cases of breast cancer that would not have shown up with traditional hand screening examinations.

Any cancer detected by BREAST-i™ is likely to be serious since it is detected by associated angiogenesis, implying that it is already in the exponentially growing phase. It must be realised that X-rays and light are monitoring different features of the breast, tissue density and neovascularisation, respectively. Should a shadow or cluster be spotted then medical consultation should be pursued.

How to use the BREAST-i™
Use the BREAST-i™ whilst sitting or standing in a darkened room, looking down directly at your breasts. Switch on and place the device under the breast. Gently press the lens into the breast, light is transmitted through breast tissues. Adjust the brightness until the skin is a uniform pink or red colour with darker lines representing the presence of blood vessels. Move the device to screen the breast, take note of the appearance and keep an eye out for any shadows or clusters..
