Abstract:Dynamic Contrast Enhance-Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCE-MRI) has proved to be a useful tool for diagnosing mass-like breast cancer. For non-mass-like lesions, however, no methods applied on DCE-MRI have shown satisfying results so far. The present paper uses the Independent Component Analysis (ICA) to extract tumor enhancement curves which are more exact than manually or automatically chosen regions of interest (ROIs). By analysing the different tissue types contained in the voxels of the MR image, we can fil… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
