A group of researchers from the National University of Colombia (UN) has designed a bra that helps detect breast cancer to determine the difference in temperature in both breasts, caused mainly by the presence of abnormal cells. The system, which is currently a prototype, aims to innovate in the prevention of the disease, whose late diagnosis can complicate the treatment and reduce the chances of success, explained the UN in a statement.

The fastener works with a software that analyzes and registers, through two infrared sensors, the temperature of each sine, something fundamental to detect possible anomalous cells. More information.
