What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Internal medicine
- Cancer
- Breast cancer
Norman F. Boyd mainly investigates Breast cancer, Mammography, Internal medicine, Risk factor and Oncology.
His Breast cancer research integrates issues from Case-control study, Epidemiology and Pathology.
His work carried out in the field of Mammography brings together such families of science as Twin study and Radiology.
His work in Internal medicine addresses issues such as Endocrinology, which are connected to fields such as Physiology.
His Risk factor study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Dense connective tissue, Risk factors for breast cancer, Gynecology and Confidence interval.
His work on Surgical oncology as part of general Oncology study is frequently connected to Risk assessment, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.
His most cited work include:
- Mammographic Density and the Risk and Detection of Breast Cancer (1541 citations)
- Quantitative Classification of Mammographic Densities and Breast Cancer Risk: Results From the Canadian National Breast Screening Study (964 citations)
- Mammographic densities and breast cancer risk. (657 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Breast cancer, Internal medicine, Mammography, Oncology and Risk factor.
In most of his Breast cancer studies, his work intersects topics such as Gynecology.
His Internal medicine study which covers Endocrinology that intersects with Physiology.
In his work, Breast Cancer Risk Factor and Breast density is strongly intertwined with Radiology, which is a subfield of Mammography.
His Oncology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Breast tissue, Incidence, Fibrocystic Breast Disease, Tamoxifen and Hormone therapy.
His Risk factor study also includes
- Case-control study which connect with Relative risk,
- Meta-analysis that intertwine with fields like Cohort study.
He most often published in these fields:
- Breast cancer (80.77%)
- Internal medicine (57.69%)
- Mammography (40.11%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2017)?
- Breast cancer (80.77%)
- Internal medicine (57.69%)
- Oncology (39.01%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of study are Breast cancer, Internal medicine, Oncology, Mammography and Cancer.
His research in Breast cancer intersects with topics in Gynecology and Risk factor.
His work on Menopause, Breast tissue and Surgical oncology is typically connected to Genetic association as part of general Internal medicine study, connecting several disciplines of science.
His work deals with themes such as Confidence interval, Tamoxifen, Estrogen receptor, Disease and Hormone therapy, which intersect with Oncology.
His study in Mammography is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ultrasound Tomography, Odds ratio, Radiology and Nuclear medicine.
His research investigates the connection with Cancer and areas like Pathology which intersect with concerns in Ductal carcinoma and Mastectomy.
Between 2008 and 2017, his most popular works were:
- Mammographic density and breast cancer risk: current understanding and future prospects (368 citations)
- Mammographic density and breast cancer risk: current understanding and future prospects (368 citations)
- Breast Tissue Composition and Susceptibility to Breast Cancer (302 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Internal medicine
- Cancer
- Breast cancer
His primary scientific interests are in Breast cancer, Mammography, Internal medicine, Oncology and Cancer.
He studied Breast cancer and Risk factor that intersect with Heritability, Case-control study and Menopause.
His Mammography research includes elements of Tissue stiffness, Gynecology, Breast pathology and Pathology.
His Internal medicine course of study focuses on Endocrinology and Physiology.
Norman F. Boyd focuses mostly in the field of Oncology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Stage and, in certain cases, Progesterone receptor and Estrogen.
His Cancer research includes themes of Carcinogen, Cohort study, Public health and Environmental health.
