The RFID Weblog: RFID and Breast Cancer Treatment

Filed in archive Healthcare by gautam on January 6, 2010

Happy New Year 2010 to all of you and I hope everybody enjoyed their holidays to the hilt. Coming back to business, for giving a boost to the healthcare sector, SenoRx is developing an RFID Tag which would be focusing on breast cancer intervention. We must keep in mind that Breast Cancer is the second most frequently diagnosed cancer among women.

The company is already carrying out market research for a new RFID tag and handheld reader which it believes could emerge as the next generation lesion localization device. It would help in bringing out improvement in scheduling logistics and workflow between radiologist and surgeon. As the RFID tag would be placed inside the breast of the patient it would reduce chances of any sort of infection and exigency of performing the surgery on the same day.

Certainly this would be a convincing development towards the well being of woman's health.

My name is Chris Powers, and I am a writer and editor for The MHEDA Journal, the quarterly journal of the Material Handling Equipment Distributors Association (MHEDA).
We have created wikiMHEDA http://www.wikimheda.org/,
an online resource for the material handling industry. wikiMHEDA is a comprehensive collection of material handling (forklifts, conveyor, warehouse equipment, etc.) terminology, videos, white papers and other information about the industry. wikiMHEDA also features breaking industry news, updated daily. A key part of wikiMHEDA is an encyclopedia of terms related to material handling (http://www.wikimheda.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page).

We're looking to cross-link our site with allied industry sites such as yours. (Links like this help both our sites move up the list in search engines.) If this is something your readers would be interested in, we�d love to work something out. Would this be of interest to you?

Many thanks,
Chris Powers
