Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Mammography is the initial examination to detect breast cancer symptoms, and quality control of mammography devices is crucial to maintain accurate diagnosis and to safeguard against degradation of performance. The objective of this study was to assist radiologists in mammography phantom image evaluation by developing and validating an interpretable deep learning model capable of objectively evaluating the quality of standard phantom images for mammography.
