Application of computer-aided diagnosis to predict malignancy in BI-RADS 3 breast lesions.

Purpose: To evaluate the ability of computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system (S-Detect) to identify malignancy in ultrasound (US) -detected BI-RADS 3 breast lesions.

Materials And Methods: 148 patients with 148 breast lesions categorized as BI-RADS 3 were included in the study between January 2021 and September 2022. The malignancy rate, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and area under the curve (AUC) were calculated.

Clinical Application of Computer-Aided Diagnosis System in Breast Ultrasound: A Prospective Multicenter Study.

Objectives: Ultrasound tends to present very high sensitivity but relatively low specificity and positive predictive value (PPV), which would result in unnecessary breast biopsies. The purpose of this study is to analyze the diagnostic performance of computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) (S-Detect) system in differentiating breast lesions and reducing unnecessary biopsies in non-university hospitals in less-developed regions of China.

Methods: The study was a prospective multicenter study from 8 hospitals.

Deep Learning-Based Computer-Aided Diagnosis for Breast Lesion Classification on Ultrasound: A Prospective Multicenter Study of Radiologists Without Breast Ultrasound Expertise.

Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems for breast ultrasound interpretation have been primarily evaluated at tertiary and/or urban medical centers by radiologists with breast ultrasound expertise. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of deep learning-based CAD software on the diagnostic performance of radiologists without breast ultrasound expertise at secondary or rural hospitals in the differentiation of benign and malignant breast lesions measuring up to 2.0 cm on ultrasound.
