Optimization of Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) for Breast Cancer Diagnosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent papers have reported the usefulness of DBT as the latest diagnostic modality for breast cancer [1]-[6]. In this chapter, the author describes clinical evaluation of the usefulness regarding DBT with reference to other diagnostic modalities such as Full Field Digital Mammography (FFDM), contrast-enhanced (CE) MRI, contrast-enhanced (CE) CT, and ultrasound (US) in accordance with preliminary experiences in breast cancer diagnosis.

Diffusion of digital breast tomosynthesis among women in primary care: associations with insurance type
Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) has shown potential to improve breast cancer screening and diagnosis compared to digital mammography (DM). The FDA approved DBT use in conjunction with conventional DM in 2011, but coverage was approved by CMS recently in 2015. Given changes in coverage policies, it is important to monitor diffusion of DBT by insurance type. This study examined DBT trends and ...
متن کاملPractical iterative image reconstruction in digital breast tomosynthesis by non-convex TpV optimization
Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is a rapidly developing imaging modality that gives some tomographic information for breast cancer screening. The effectiveness of standard mammography can be limited by the presence of overlapping structures in the breast. A DBT scan, consisting of a limited number of views covering a limited arc projecting the breast onto a fixed flat-panel detector, involve...
متن کاملDigital Breast Tomosynthesis - 06/13
Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is being developed as an approach to generate images that may improve the sensitivity and specificity of mammography. Current radiographic approaches to mammography produce two-dimensional (2D) images. These 2D systems can have limitations due to overlapping tissue in the breast that may hide lesions (cancers) or cause benign masses to appear suspicious. DBT, ...

متن کاملTitle: Simulation of 3D DLA masses in digital breast tomosynthesis
Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is suggested to have superior performance compared to 2D mammography in terms of cancer visibility, especially in the case of dense breasts. However, the overall performance of tomosynthesis for screening applications, and the manner in which tomosynthesis should be optimally used for screening remains unclear. This motivates the development of software tools ...
