Abstract

AIMS: Risk stratification of atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), diagnosed using breast biopsy, has great clinical significance. Clinical trials are currently exploring the possibility of active surveillance for low-risk lesions, whereas axillary lymph node staging may be considered during surgical planning for high-risk lesions. We aimed to develop a machine-learning algorithm based on whole-slide images of breast biopsy specimens and clinical information to predict the risk of upstaging to invasive breast cancer after wide excision.
