Summary

The first objective of this study is to assess the accuracy of digital image-processing techniques to provide measurements of human breast physical dimensions. The ultimate usefulness of these techniques is to develop quantitative outcome measures of the visual appearance of breast after local treatments for breast cancer. These measures will be used to improve clinical outcomes from multimodality therapy that includes surgery and radiotherapy and form the basis for the future development of patient decision making aids. The second objective is to evaluate the relationship between patient reported body image outcomes and measurement of human breast physical dimensions for patients with breast cancer.

Questionnaire

A brief questionnaire packet will be completed.

PROCEDURE

Digital Imaging

Photographs of the breast(s) will be taken with two different types of digital cameras (2D and 3D). The photos will be used to develop automated methods for evaluating the appearance and shape of the breasts.
