Histological Detection of High-Risk Benign Breast Lesions from Whole Slide Images
نویسندگان
چکیده
• Accurate diagnosis of high-risk benign breast lesions is crucial since they are associated with an increased risk of invasive breast cancer development. • Since it is not yet possible to identify the occult cancer patients without surgery, this limitation leads to retrospectively unnecessary surgeries. • Here, we present a computational pathology pipeline for histological diagnosis of high-risk benign breast lesions from whole slide images (WSIs). • Our computational pathology pipeline includes: • WSI stain color normalization, • Ductal regions of interest (ROIs) segmentation, and • Cytological and Architectural feature extraction to classify ductal ROIs into triaged high-risk benign lesions. • We curated 93 WSIs of breast tissues containing high-risk benign lesions. • Ground truth annotations collected from 3 pathologists. • Our method has comparable performance to expert pathologists.

Evaluation of a new 99mTc-Bombesin analog in differentiation of malignant from benign breast tumors
Introduction: The gastrin releasing peptide (GRP) receptor is over expressed in a variety of common human tumors. Radiolabeled bombesin analogues have exhibited high binding affinity for these receptors. The aim of this study was to assess the value of a new 99mTc-bombesin analog in the differentiation of malignant from benign breast tumors. Methods: 99mTc-bombesin scans ...
متن کاملContext-aware stacked convolutional neural networks for classification of breast carcinomas in whole-slide histopathology images
Currently, histopathological tissue examination by a pathologist represents the gold standard for breast lesion diagnostics. Automated classification of histopathological whole-slide images (WSIs) is challenging owing to the wide range of appearances of benign lesions and the visual similarity of ductal carcinoma in-situ (DCIS) to invasive lesions at the cellular level. Consequently, analysis o...

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death among women. Mammography remains today the best technology to detect breast cancer, early and efficiently, to distinguish between benign and malignant diseases. Several techniques in image processing and analysis have been developed to address this problem. In this paper, we propose a new solution to the problem of computer aided detection and...
متن کاملBenign breast disease and breast cancer risk: potential role for antiestrogens.
Evidence from clinical follow-up studies has indicated that there is a relationship between the presence of histologically proven benign breast disease and breast cancer risk, and that the risk varies according to the histological category of benign breast disease and hormonal status. The risk associated with these histological factors appears to be equal in both breasts, suggesting that these ...

ABSTRACT Nucleolar organizer regions(NORs) are loops of DNA included ribosomal genes that ribosomal RNA translated of it, which synthesis proteins. NORs are in short arms of acrocentric chromosomes and associated with argyrophilic proteins, which are seen as black dots, termed “AgNOR”, by using colloidal silver (Ag) staining method. AgNOR count in nucleous have direct relation with cel...
