Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Radiology
  • Computer-Aided Diagnosis

Background:

  • Breast cancer remains a leading cause of mortality in women, necessitating effective early detection methods.
  • Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is a key imaging modality for early breast cancer diagnosis.
  • High-density object artifacts in DBT images can hinder accurate diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the causes of high-density object artifacts in DBT images.
  • To propose and evaluate novel reconstruction methods for mitigating these artifacts.
  • To enhance the diagnostic quality of DBT images.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a reprojection-based segmentation algorithm for high-density object projection data.
  • Implemented an iterative reconstruction algorithm utilizing volume expansion.
  • Validated the methods using simulation data and human breast data with artificial surgical needles.

Main Results:

  • The proposed algorithm effectively reduces the distortion of shape, size, and position of high-density objects.
  • Significant reduction in the influence of artifacts was observed.
  • Overall improvement in the quality of reconstructed DBT images was achieved.

Conclusions:

  • The developed reconstruction methods effectively address high-density object artifacts in DBT.
  • Improved image quality can enhance the diagnostic accuracy and utility of DBT.
  • This work aims to promote wider adoption and effectiveness of DBT in clinical practice.
