Breast cancer control has been one of the priorities on the agenda of the National Health Policy in Brazil. Thus, the Ministry of Health, through the publication "Guidelines for the Early Detection of Breast Cancer in Brazil", recommends the identification of the disease in its early stages through early detection strategies. It is estimated that there will be 66,280 new cases of breast cancer for each year of the three-year period 2020-2022 in Brazil and Population-Based Cancer Registries (RCBP), Hospital Cancer Registries (RHC) and information on Mortality are essential requirements for national and regional programs for cancer control, in addition to guiding the research agenda.
According to the National Cancer Institute (INCA), the benefit of screening mammography is in early identification, allowing for less aggressive treatment.
VTM is a functional method that demonstrates the metabolic intensity in real time, through images in the colors of the visible spectrum without using ionizing energy or contrast. It expresses metabolic alterations before anatomical transformations. It is a method without radiation, contrast, pain or contact, and can be used without limiting the exposure time.
