Summary
This study aimed to create a personalized 3D computer model of the breast to help surgeons better understand where tumors are located during surgery. Researchers measured skin elasticity and thickness in 200 women, and performed special MRI scans on 10 women in different positions. The goal was to improve surgical planning for breast cancer patients.
