  • Methods and systems for determining breast density
    Patent number: 10123758
    Abstract: Various embodiments are described herein for methods, devices and systems that can be used to determine a breast density value from an input image of patient's breast. In one example embodiment, the breast density value is calculated by receiving an input image corresponding to the digital mammogram, removing metadata information from the input image to generate an intermediate image, generating a region of interest (ROI) image based on the intermediate image, extracting values for predictor variables based on the metadata information, the intermediate image and the ROI image, and calculating breast density based on the values of the predictor variables. The breast density value is calculated based on a breast density model.
