Sports bra could detect early signs of breast cancer

A sports bra designed by Dr. Elias Siores of the University of Bolton (United Kingdom), and currently being developed by First Warning Systems, may be able to detect early signs of breast cancer. Having already undergone a clinical trial on 650 subjects, the sports bra works on the principles of thermography, where "the bra can detect slight temperature changes that could signal the development of tumors." While not expected to reach the European market until 2013, and the U.S. market in 2014, the bra is believed to have the potential to detect tumors earlier and thus cut down on the number of false positives and negatives. It may even be able to replace breast self-exams.
