This study introduces a new multiview computer-aided detection (CAD) system. The enhanced system improves mass detection on both mammogram views while reducing false positives, aiding radiologists in breast cancer screening.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Mammography is crucial for breast cancer detection.
  • Single-image computer-aided detection (CAD) systems have limitations in detecting all masses and generating false positives.
  • Multiview analysis can potentially improve detection accuracy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a novel multiview-based CAD scheme for mammography.
  • To maintain case-based sensitivity comparable to single-image CAD.
  • To increase the detection of masses visible on both ipsilateral mammogram views and reduce false positives.

Main Methods:

  • A multiview CAD scheme was developed using a database of 450 four-view mammographic examinations.
  • Suspected mass regions were initially detected using single-image CAD.

  • A matching algorithm paired regions on ipsilateral views, and a neural network assessed the likelihood of true positives.
  • A threshold adjustment strategy was employed within matching strips to identify paired regions.
  • Main Results:

    • The single-image CAD detected 186 masses with 74.4% case-based sensitivity, with 51.1% detected on only one view.
    • The multiview CAD scheme maintained sensitivity while detecting 90.9% of masses on both views.
    • The multiview CAD scheme reduced the case-based false-positive detection rate by 23.7%.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed multiview CAD scheme effectively increases the detection of masses on both ipsilateral mammogram views.
    • This approach maintains high sensitivity while significantly reducing the false-positive rate.
    • Multiview CAD shows promise for improving the accuracy and efficiency of breast cancer screening.
