Abstract: A system for screening tissue on the presence of malignant cells in said tissue, which system comprises a wave detector and a data processing device connected or connectable to the wave detector for processing data received from the wave detector, which system comprises an actuator to excite the tissue which is suspected to comprise malignant cells, and the data processing device comprises an analyzer connected to the wave detector for analyzing the data received from the wave detector in response to the actuator exciting the tissue, which analyzer is arranged to identify the tissue with an elevated probability to comprise malignant cells in comparison with tissue that is not suspected to comprise malignant cells in an individual case. The inventors remark that the identification of high but symmetrical outcome results can be used in a population-based stratification of risk of developing malignant cells and can serve as a biomarker in risk-based screening approaches.
