The experiment leads to the formulation of a non-invasive and highly efficient method for the detection of the female breast cancer. The proposed method is a combination of the results of ultrasound and thermography tests of the breast. The study is expected to produce the principles of test results analysis offering a 90% success rate in detecting breast cancer.
