Analysis of dynamic MR breast images using a model of contrast enhancement.
We describe a model of dynamic contrast enhancement in breast MRI designed to aid the radiologist in cases for which X-ray mammography is ineffective. The breasts are segmented from the image slices by a dynamic programming algorithm after morphological opening. A pharmacokinetic model has been deri...
