Local inventors have patent application under review

According to an article in Equities . com, Unmin Bae of Kenmore, Alexey Cherepakhim of Lake Forest Park, and Vijay Shamdasana of Kenmore are part of a five person team which developed improved diagnostic imaging for breast cysts.

"Breast cysts can pose a diagnostic dilemma. For example, simple cysts with hemorrhagic content may have internal echoes and appear suspicious on conventional ultrasound..."

"Accordingly, better visualizing hypoechoic areas on ultrasound and better differentiating between such solid and fluid regions is of great clinical importance for diagnosis and management of cancers and vascular pathologies. "

The patent was filed on September 30, 2010 and was cleared for further review on December 27, 2012.
