  • Publication number: 20240127959
    Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for determining a temporal breast cancer risk (27). This risk is indicative of detecting cancer in a breast within a predetermined time interval after a negative breast cancer detection result that has been obtained by carrying out a breast cancer detection procedure defined by a breast cancer detection parameter. The temporal breast cancer risk (27) is determined based on a) a probability parameter (25) being indicative of a probability of having breast cancer and b) a density parameter (26) being indicative of a density-related property of breast tissue of a breast, wherein the probability parameter (25) and the density parameter (26) have been determined based on a breast image data set (24) of the woman by using an artificial intelligence. The determined risk can be used, for instance, for deciding whether a supplemental examination should be performed immediately or for defining a screening interval.

  • Patent number: 10242490
    Abstract: The invention relates to a displaying system for displaying digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) data. First and second DBT volume images of the left breast of a woman and first and second DBT volume images of the right breast of the woman are provided by an image providing unit. Moreover, for each DBT volume image a two-dimensional navigation image is provided by a navigation image providing unit, wherein a user is allowed to indicate a location in the navigation image by using a user interface, whereafter a CAD marker associated with the location is determined in a DBT volume image of a breast and a corresponding CAD marker, if present, is determined in another DBT volume image of the breast. Slices of these DBT volume images, which are associated with the CAD markers, are presented on a display.
