Breast - Female

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess whether microwave scans can depict the presence of implants in the breast in women with existing breast implants that were surgically placed at least 6 months ago. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can a microwave imaging device effectively scan a breast containing implants? 2. Can the presence of implants be identified in a microwave scan? 3. Can the microwave scans of the left and right breasts be compared to assess whether similarity is observed?

This randomized controlled trial evaluates the effectiveness of a web-based psychoeducation program on psychological well-being and quality of life in breast cancer survivors who completed active treatment at least one year earlier. Seventy-two women will be randomly assigned to either a 6-week online psychoeducation program plus standard care or standard care alone. The intervention consists of weekly 30-45 minute online sessions focusing on coping strategies, psychosocial adjustment, quality of life, and psychological well-being. Primary outcomes include psychological well-being, fear of cancer recurrence, quality of life, and hopelessness, assessed at baseline, post-intervention, and 2-month follow-up.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide and can be deadly if not found early. Screening tests like mammograms help find breast cancer early, which improves the chances of successful treatment. However, many women do not take part in regular screenings because of fear, lack of knowledge, or other barriers. This study looks at two ways of teaching women about breast cancer and mammogram screening: traditional health education and a counseling approach called motivational interviewing. Motivational interviewing helps women feel more confident and motivated to get screened by talking about their concerns and encouraging positive decisions. The goal is to see which method better increases women's knowledge about breast cancer, their beliefs about health, their confidence in getting mammograms, and their actual participation in screening programs. The results will help improve how we support women in taking care of their breast health.
