Breast density analysis of digital breast tomosynthesis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
AbstractMammography shifted to digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in the US. An automated percentage of breast density (PD) technique designed for two-dimensional (2D) applications was evaluated with DBT using several breast cancer risk prediction measures: normalized-volumetric; dense volume; applied to the volume slices and averaged (slice-mean); and

Benign breast disease and changes in mammographic breast density [PDF]

open access: yesBreast Cancer Research, 2021
AbstractBackgroundMammographic breast density (MBD) and benign breast disease (BBD) are two of the strongest risk factors for breast cancer. Understanding trends in MBD by age and parity in women with BBD is essential to the clinical management and prevention of breast cancer.MethodsUsing data from the Early Determinants of Mammographic Density (EDMD ...
