Breast cancer is a great threat to females. Ultrasound imaging has been applied extensively in diagnosis of breast cancer. Due to the poor image quality, segmentation of breast ultrasound (BUS) image remains a very challenging task. Besides, BUS imag...
PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to assess the classification capability of Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) ultrasound feature descriptors targeting established commercial transcriptomic gene signatures that guide managemen...
PURPOSE: To train deep learning models to differentiate benign and malignant breast tumors in ultrasound images, we need to collect many training samples with clear labels. In general, biopsy results can be used as benign/malignant labels. However, m...

Breast cancer is a high-incidence type of cancer for women. Early diagnosis plays a crucial role in the successful treatment of the disease and the effective reduction of deaths. In this paper, deep learning technology combined with ultrasound imagin...
Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) has been a popular area of research and development in the past few decades. In CAD, machine learning methods and multidisciplinary knowledge and techniques are used to analyze the patient information and the results ca...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate various combinations of 13 features based on shear wave elasticity (SWE), statistical and spectral backscatter properties of tissues, along with the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS), for cla...
Background Deep learning (DL) algorithms are gaining extensive attention for their excellent performance in image recognition tasks. DL models can automatically make a quantitative assessment of complex medical image characteristics and achieve incre...
BACKGROUND: Our aims were to determine if features derived from texture analysis (TA) can distinguish normal, benign, and malignant tissue on automated breast ultrasound (ABUS); to evaluate whether machine learning (ML) applied to TA can categorise A...
We present a deep learning method used in conjunction with dual-modal microwave-ultrasound imaging to produce tomographic reconstructions of the complex-valued permittivity of numerical breast phantoms. We also assess tumor segmentation performance u...
ABUS, or Automated breast ultrasound, is an innovative and promising method of screening for breast examination. Comparing to common B-mode 2D ultrasound, ABUS attains operator-independent image acquisition and also provides 3D views of the whole bre...
