Small Lesions Evaluation Based on Unsupervised Cluster Analysis of Signal-Intensity Time Courses in Dynamic Breast MRI

An application of an unsupervised neural network-based computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system is reported for the detection and characterization of small indeterminate breast lesions, average size 1.1 mm, in dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI. This system enables the extraction of spatial and temporal fea...
