Image enhancement of photoacoustic imaging for early endometrial cancer detection by employing a filtered delay multiply and sum beamforming algorithm

In endometrial cancer, patients in early stages have a 91% 5-year survival chance. By contrast, patients in advanced stages have only 20% survival chance. Therefore, early diagnosis of endometrial cancer is very important. Photoacoustic imaging is able to distinguish benign from malignant tumors. Ho...
