Background And Objectives: This study compares the clinical properties of original breast ultrasound images and those synthesized by a generative adversarial network (GAN) to assess the clinical usefulness of GAN-synthesized images.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively collected approximately 200 breast ultrasound images for each of five representative histological tissue types (cyst, fibroadenoma, scirrhous, solid, and tubule-forming invasive ductal carcinomas) as training images. A deep convolutional GAN (DCGAN) image-generation model synthesized images of the five histological types.
