Dr. Kandace P. McGuire shares how 3D tomosynthesis assisted her during two cases (The Case of the Missing Magseed & Imaging a Bracketed Lesion). In addition, Dr. McGuire discusses how she evaluated the specimens in multiple ways using KUBTEC’s MOZART ...
Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a technique that prepares acceptable results for molecular imaging biomarkers to precisely and dependably detect and diagnose disorders which are sign of cancers. Since contemporary manual FISH signal analysis is low-effective and inconsistent, it is an attractive research area to develop automated FISH image scanning systems and computer-aided ...
Automatic scoring of Ki-67 with digital image analysis would improve the accuracy of the diagnostic. However, automatic Ki-67 assessment is very challenging due to complex variations of cell characteristics. In this paper, we propose an integrated framework for accurate Ki-67 scoring. The main contributions of our method are: a robust cell detection algorithm to detect all tumor and non-tumor ...
This is an observational cohort study looking at women, 30 years of age or older with a concern or at risk of suspected breast disease or breast cancer. The proposed study aims to examine the diagnostic performance of non-contrast MRI in breast disease by applying quantitative multiparametric MRI ...
Despite breast cancer being the second most common cancer for women in the US, progress in the breast imaging space has been stagnant over the last few decades. This is evident in the countless women who are still misdiagnosed – either receiving a false positive or getting diagnosed in the later stages of the disease. Why Early Detection is Important According to the National Breast ...
Revolutionizing breast cancer detection Breast cancer is the most diagnosed cancer in women in the United States and the second leading cause of cancer death in American women.1 It is also treatable if detected early enough. While there are various cancer detection modalities available, current breast imaging devices fail to expose as much as 35% of breast cancers and that number increases to ...
Different irradiation configurations for typical mammographic facilities were evaluated in order to establish optimal irradiation parameters for improving X-ray image quality. The whole X-ray imaging process was suitably studied by means of Monte Carlo techniques. Relevant parameters were introduced to the program in order to evaluate their effect on image quality. Breast absorbed doses were ...
