Which modality is better for breast cancer diagnosis, contrast-enhanced mammography or dynamic contrast-enhanced breast MRI? It depends on a variety of factors, according to a review published in the July issue of Radiologic Clinics. https://lnkd.in/gvVPQfmW

📘 This paper presents a pioneering approach to classifying breast tumors in digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) images by integrating image quality-aware features with tumor texture descriptors. This advancement holds promise for improving breast cancer screening accuracy and underscores the importance of accounting for image quality in automated tumor classification systems. #breastcancerclassification; #breasttomosynthesis; #deeplearning; #imagequalityassessment "Classifying Breast Tumors in Digital Tomosynthesis by Combining Image Quality-Aware Features and Tumor Texture Descriptors" By Loay Hassan, Abdelnasser Mohamed, Adel Saleh and Domenec Puig 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eUxraxtk

🩷With Radiology Developing so quickly, the value of long term studies are becoming increasingly more valuable. Excellent to see how effective DBT is compared to traditional Mammo's in the detection of Breast Cancer. When early detection is paramount, developments like these should be global news! https://lnkd.in/geYpqy-N

Testing for Microsatellite Instability truly exemplifies the potential of precision medicine. ⬇ 👍 Two recent studies highlight the crucial role of MSI diagnosis in cancer patients, facilitating access to life-changing immunotherapy. Two demonstrations bolstering MSInsight's mission to enhance the diagnostic accuracy of this pivotal biomarker in advancing precision medicine. 1️⃣ Groundbreaking results from the NICHE-2 trial demonstrate the exceptional effectiveness of neoadjuvant immunotherapy for colon cancer, prior to surgery. The treatment regimen of ipilimumab and nivolumab resulted in nearly complete tumor clearance in 95% of patients, with no recurrence observed over a span of more than two years. The Netherlands Cancer Institute https://lnkd.in/dwRKU5eG 2️⃣ An interesting case report highlights the essential role of MSI diagnosis in treatment decisions, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis and the potential offered by Next-Generation Sequencing and its application with circulating tumor DNA.

Great insights

The role of ultrasound in breast cancer imaging

As high as 1 in 8 cases of breast cancer are missed in a mamogram. A large study concludes, AI-supported mammogram screening was 20% more likely to detect breast cancer than trained doctors. #digitalhealth #mamogram #AIinHealthcare #HealthcareInnovation #AIDetection https://lnkd.in/edHGtdRz
