摘要

Recent advances in the use of diffuse optical techniques for monitoring the hemodynamic, metabolic, and physiological signatures of the neoadjuvant breast cancer therapy effectiveness is critically reviewed. An extensive discussion of the state-of-the-art diffuse optical mammography is presented alongside a discussion of the current approaches to breast cancer therapies. Overall, the diffuse optics field is growing rapidly with a great deal of promise to fill an important niche in the current approaches to monitor, predict, and personalize neoadjuvant breast cancer therapies.
