Abstract

This paper introduces RapidET, a MEMS-based platform for rapid and label-free diagnosis of breast tumors. The platform uses electrothermal sensing to measure bulk resistivity (ρb), surface resistivity (ρs), and thermal conductivity (κ) of breast biopsy tissues. Results from 8 patients showed statistically significant differences in these properties between tumor and adjacent normal tissues. The combination of these three parameters improved the accuracy of tumor demarcation.
