Purpose: This work aims to develop an image reconstruction algorithm for wide-angle digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) that has improved depth resolution and in-plane contrast while reducing non-uniformity artifacts. Approach: The image…

Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is an emerging modality for breast imaging. A typical tomosynthesis image is reconstructed from projection data acquired at a limited number of views over a limited angular range. In general, the…

Digital Breast Tomosynthesis is an X-ray imaging technique that allows a volumetric reconstruction of the breast, from a small number of low-dose two-dimensional projections. Although it is already used in clinical setting, enhancing the…

Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) provides an insight into the fine details of normal fibroglandular tissues and abnormal lesions by reconstructing a pseudo-3D image of the breast. In this respect, DBT overcomes a major limitation of…

The two-dimensional nature of mammography makes estimation of the overall breast density challenging, and estimation of the true patient-specific radiation dose impossible. Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), a pseudo-3D technique, is now…

Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) is a widely used medical imaging modality for breast cancer screening and diagnosis, offering higher spatial resolution and greater detail through its 3D-like breast volume imaging capability. However, the…

Purpose: The goal of this study is to develop a novel deep learning (DL) based reconstruction framework to improve the digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) imaging performance. Methods: In this work, the DIR-DBTnet is developed for DBT image…

There are a number of clinically relevant tasks in digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) involving the detection and visual assessment of fiber-like structures such as Cooper's ligaments, blood vessels, and spiculated lesions. Such structures…

An optimization-based image reconstruction algorithm is developed for contrast enhanced digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) using dual-energy scanning. The algorithm minimizes directional total variation (TV) with a data discrepancy and…

Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) exams should utilize the lowest possible radiation dose while maintaining sufficiently good image quality for accurate medical diagnosis. In this work, we propose a convolution neural network (CNN) to…

Breast X-ray CT imaging is being considered in screening as an extension to mammography. As a large fraction of the population will be exposed to radiation, low-dose imaging is essential. Iterative image reconstruction based on solving an…

Ultrasound computed tomography (USCT) holds great promise for breast cancer screening. Waveform inversion-based image reconstruction methods account for higher order diffraction effects and can produce high-resolution USCT images, but are…

Digital breast tomosynthesis is rapidly replacing digital mammography as the basic x-ray technique for evaluation of the breasts. However, the sparse sampling and limited angular range gives rise to different artifacts, which manufacturers…

Mammography-based screening has helped reduce the breast cancer mortality rate, but has also been associated with potential harms due to low specificity, leading to unnecessary exams or procedures, and low sensitivity. Digital breast…

Breast cancer screening is one of the most common radiological tasks with over 39 million exams performed each year. While breast cancer screening has been one of the most studied medical imaging applications of artificial intelligence, the…

We consider the problem of reconstructing 2D images from randomly under-sampled confocal microscopy samples. The well known and widely celebrated total variation regularization, which is the L1 norm of derivatives, turns out to be…

Full Field Digital Mammograms (FFDMs) and Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) are the two most widely used imaging modalities for breast cancer screening. Although DBT has increased cancer detection compared to FFDM, its widespread adoption…

We propose a model-based image reconstruction method for photoacoustic tomography(PAT) involving a novel form of regularization and demonstrate its ability to recover good quality images from significantly reduced size datasets. The…

Fiber-like features are an important aspect of breast imaging. Vessels and ducts are present in all breast images, and spiculations radiating from a mass can indicate malignancy. Accordingly, fiber objects are one of the three types of…

Objective: To develop an automatic image normalization algorithm for intensity correction of images from breast dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) acquired by different MRI scanners with various imaging…
