Assessing Breast Cancer Risk with an Artificial Neural Network.

Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP
Objectives: Radiologists face uncertainty in making decisions based on their judgment of breast cancer risk. Artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques have been widely applied in detection/recognition of cancer. This study aimed to esta...

Mass detection in digital breast tomosynthesis data using convolutional neural networks and multiple instance learning.

Computers in biology and medicine
Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) was developed in the field of breast cancer screening as a new tomographic technique to minimize the limitations of conventional digital mammography breast screening methods. A computer-aided detection (CAD) framewo...

Using Convolutional Neural Networks for Enhanced Capture of Breast Parenchymal Complexity Patterns Associated with Breast Cancer Risk.

Academic radiology
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: We evaluate utilizing convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to optimally fuse parenchymal complexity measurements generated by texture analysis into discriminative meta-features relevant for breast cancer risk prediction.

Prediction of breast cancer risk using a machine learning approach embedded with a locality preserving projection algorithm.

Physics in medicine and biology
In order to automatically identify a set of effective mammographic image features and build an optimal breast cancer risk stratification model, this study aims to investigate advantages of applying a machine learning approach embedded with a locally ...

Machine learning to parse breast pathology reports in Chinese.

Breast cancer research and treatment
INTRODUCTION: Large structured databases of pathology findings are valuable in deriving new clinical insights. However, they are labor intensive to create and generally require manual annotation. There has been some work in the bioinformatics communi...

Computer-aided assessment of breast density: comparison of supervised deep learning and feature-based statistical learning.

Physics in medicine and biology
Breast density is one of the most significant factors that is associated with cancer risk. In this study, our purpose was to develop a supervised deep learning approach for automated estimation of percentage density (PD) on digital mammograms (DMs). ...

Breast lesion classification based on supersonic shear-wave elastography and automated lesion segmentation from B-mode ultrasound images.

Computers in biology and medicine
Supersonic shear-wave elastography (SWE) has emerged as a useful imaging modality for breast lesion assessment. Regions of interest (ROIs) were required to be specified for extracting features that characterize malignancy of lesions. Although analyse...

Serum Vitamin D Levels Affect Pathologic Complete Response in Patients Undergoing Neoadjuvant Systemic Therapy for Operable Breast Cancer.

Clinical breast cancer
INTRODUCTION: There has been increasing interest in the potential benefit of vitamin D in improving breast cancer outcome. Preclinical studies suggest that vitamin D enhances chemotherapy-induced cell death. We investigated the impact of serum vitami...

Computer-aided diagnosis of contrast-enhanced spectral mammography: A feasibility study.

European journal of radiology
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether the use of a computer-aided diagnosis-contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CAD-CESM) tool can further increase the diagnostic performance of CESM compared with that of experienced radiologists.

Digital image analysis in breast pathology-from image processing techniques to artificial intelligence.

Translational research : the journal of laboratory and clinical medicine
Breast cancer is the most common malignant disease in women worldwide. In recent decades, earlier diagnosis and better adjuvant therapy have substantially improved patient outcome. Diagnosis by histopathology has proven to be instrumental to guide br...
