Evaluation of suspicious breast lesions with diffusion kurtosis MR imaging and connection with prognostic factors.

Purpose: To investigate the additional value of DKI in discriminating suspicious breast lesions on DCE-MRI, as compared with conventional DWI; and to explore connection between DKI-parameters and prognostic factors of breast cancers.

Methods: The institutional review board approved this retrospective study and written informed consent was waived. Totally, 300 women (mean age, 43.

Cascaded Algorithm Selection With Extreme-Region UCB Bandit.

AutoML aims at best configuring learning systems automatically. It contains core subtasks of algorithm selection and hyper-parameter tuning. Previous approaches considered searching in the joint hyper-parameter space of all algorithms, which forms a huge but redundant space and causes an inefficient search.

Detection and Classification of Breast Lesions With Readout-Segmented Diffusion-Weighted Imaging in a Large Chinese Cohort.

To evaluate the performance of readout-segmented echo-planar imaging DWI (rs-EPI DWI) in detecting and characterizing breast cancers in a large Chinese cohort with comparison to dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI). The institutional review board approved this retrospective study with waived written informed consent. A total of 520 women (mean age, 43.
