Visualizing research themes in radiological applications for breast cancer detection, diagnosis and treatment.
Guisu Li, Katherine Wootton McCain · PubMed · 2008
We present a visualization of basic and clinical research in radiological detection, diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer based on an analysis of almost 14,000 articles indexed in the Web of Science from 1997 to 2006. Using bibliometric and network visualization software, we identified highly cited key papers linked to seven visible, persistent research themes spanning detection, diagnosis, and radiotherapy for breast cancer.
