Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) performs a critical role in breast cancer diagnosis, especially for high-risk populations e.g. family history. MRI could take advantage of the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI). AI assessment of breast composition factors is less studied than those of lesion detection and classification. These factors are breast density, background parenchymal enhancement (BPE) and fibroglandular tissue (FGT), which are recognized breast cancer phenotypes.
