DBT Fang, Q. 2011 125 {189} Explore the optical and physiologic properties of normal and lesion-bearing breasts Bulk tissue THb (n = 138 normal breasts) 19.2 μM and sO2 0.73. Cancer THb (n = 26) significantly greater than fibroglandular tissue of the same breast (P=.0062). Solid benign lesions (n=17) and cysts (n = 8) significantly lower THb than cancers (P = .025 and P = .0033, respectively).
