BACKGROUND: Breast ultrasound (US) is useful for dense breasts, and the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted diagnoses of breast US images should be considered. However, the implementation of AI-based technologies in clinical practic...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: This study compares the clinical properties of original breast ultrasound images and those synthesized by a generative adversarial network (GAN) to assess the clinical usefulness of GAN-synthesized images.
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Artificial intelligence (AI) systems have been increasingly applied to breast ultrasonography. They are expected to decrease the workload of radiologists and to improve diagnostic accuracy. The aim of this study is to evalua...
Efficient Neural Architecture Search (ENAS) is a recent development in searching for optimal cell structures for Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) design. It has been successfully used in various applications including ultrasound image classificatio...
PURPOSE: Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems on breast ultrasound (BUS) aim to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of breast screening, helping specialists to detect and classify breast lesions. CAD system development requires a set of annot...
Ultrasound is an adjunct tool to mammography that can quickly and safely aid physicians in diagnosing breast abnormalities. Clinical ultrasound often assumes a constant sound speed to form diagnostic B-mode images. However, the components of breast t...
AIM: To facilitate the routine tasks performed by radiologists in their evaluation of breast radiology reports, by enhancing the communication of relevant results to referring physicians via a natural language processing (NLP)-based system to classif...
