Convolutional Neural Network Detection of Axillary Lymph Node Metastasis Using Standard Clinical Breast MRI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Axillary lymph node status is important for breast cancer staging and treatment planning as the majority of breast cancer metastasis spreads through the axillary lymph nodes. There is currently no reliable noninvasive imaging method to detect nodal metastasis associated with breast cancer.
