The tubule index is a vital prognostic measure in breast cancer tumor grading and is visually evaluated by pathologists. In this paper, a computer-aided patch-based deep learning tubule segmentation framework, named Tubule-U-Net, is developed and pro...
This topical review is focused on the clinical breast x-ray imaging applications of the rapidly evolving field of artificial intelligence (AI). The range of AI applications is broad. AI can be used for breast cancer risk estimation that could allow f...
OBJECTIVES: Ultrasound examination has inter-observer and intra-observer variability and a high false-positive rate. The aim of this study was to evaluate the value of the combined use of a deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system an...

To develop a deep-learning system for the automatic identification of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) solely from ultrasound images. A total of 145 patients and 831 images were retrospectively enrolled at Peking Union College Hospital from April...
The prediction of an occult invasive component in ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) before surgery is of clinical importance because the treatment strategies are different between pure DCIS without invasive component and upgraded DCIS. We demonstrated ...
The Global Cancer Statistics 2020 reported breast cancer (BC) as the most common diagnosis of cancer type. Therefore, early detection of such type of cancer would reduce the risk of death from it. Breast imaging techniques are one of the most frequen...
Breast cancer is one of the largest single contributors to the burden of disease worldwide. Early detection of breast cancer has been shown to be associated with better overall clinical outcomes. Ultrasonography is a vital imaging modality in managin...

BACKGROUND: Breast ultrasound (BUS) imaging is one of the most prevalent approaches for the detection of breast cancers. Tumor segmentation of BUS images can facilitate doctors in localizing tumors and is a necessary step for computer-aided diagnosis...
Lymphovascular invasion, specifically lymph-blood vessel invasion (LBVI), is a risk factor for metastases in breast invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) and is routinely screened using hematoxylin-eosin histopathological images. However, routine reports o...
