Individualized Analysis of Nipple-Sparing Mastectomy Versus Modified Radical Mastectomy Using Deep Learning. [PDF]
This study aims to explore the overall survival (OS) and breast cancer‐specific survival (BCSS) advantages of nipple‐sparing mastectomy (NSM) and modified radical mastectomy (MRM) at the individual level and to quantify the extent to which neoadjuvant systemic treatment (NST) can be used for surgical downgrading.

Characterization of breast tissues in density and effective atomic number basis via spectral X-ray computed tomography [PDF]
Differentiation of breast tissues is challenging in X-ray imaging because tissues might share similar or even the same linear attenuation coefficients $\mu$. Spectral computed tomography (CT) allows for more quantitative characterization in terms of tissue density and effective atomic number by exploiting the energy dependence of $\mu$. In this work, 5
