OBJECTIVE: To develop a dynamic contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS)-based method for segmenting tumor perfusion subregions, quantifying tumor heterogeneity, and constructing models for distinguishing benign from malignant breast tumors.
Breast cancer is the leading cancer threatening women's health. In recent years, deep neural networks have outperformed traditional methods in terms of both accuracy and efficiency for breast cancer classification. However, most ultrasound-based brea...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Early detection of malignant lesions in ultrasound images is crucial for effective cancer diagnosis and treatment. While traditional methods rely on radiologists, deep learning models can improve accuracy, reduce errors, and...
To compare the diagnostic performance of artificial intelligence-assisted automated breast ultrasound (AI-ABUS) with traditional handheld ultrasound (HHUS) in breast cancer screening. A total of 36 171 women undergoing breast cancer ultrasound scre...

The reflection ultrasound computed tomography (UCT) is gaining prominence as an essential instrument for breast cancer screening. However, reflection UCT quality is often compromised by the variability in sound speed across breast tissue. Traditional...
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have achieved remarkable success in breast ultrasound image segmentation, but they still face several challenges when dealing with breast lesions. Due to the limitations of CNNs in modeling long-range dependencies...
This study introduces a novel multimodal deep learning model tailored for the differentiation of benign and malignant breast masses using dual-view breast ultrasound images (radial and anti-radial views) in conjunction with corresponding radiology re...
PURPOSE: Noninvasive, accurate and novel approaches to predict patients who will achieve pathological complete response (pCR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) could assist treatment strategies. The aim of this study was to explore the application...
