Abstract
Breast cancer is a significant global health issue, with an incidence rate of 46.8 per 100,000 women worldwide, making it the second most common cancer overall and the leading cancer among women. Malaysia mirrors this global trend, facing both a high incidence and a concerning mortality rate. Despite the widespread prevalence, many individuals do not seek life-saving treatments due to negligence, fear, and lack of awareness. Guided by the Hadith, "Allah has sent down both the disease and the cure," this study aims to explore and promote innovative advancements in breast cancer treatment. Through a systematic literature review, the study evaluates cutting-edge technologies like wearable ultrasound scanners, cone-beam breast CT, iBreastExam, MARIA, PEM, magnetic targeting of tumors, and robotic mastectomy. These innovations hold the potential to significantly reduce the global burden of breast cancer and improve patient outcomes. To enhance public understanding, an accessible infographic was created using Canva to educate a broad audience, ensuring that these life-saving advancements are widely known and utilized.
