Background: Ultrasound is one of the preferred choices for early screening of dense breast cancer. Clinically, doctors have to manually write the screening report, which is time-consuming and laborious, and it is easy to miss and miswrite.
Aim: We proposed a new pipeline to automatically generate AI breast ultrasound screening reports based on ultrasound images, aiming to assist doctors in improving the efficiency of clinical screening and reducing repetitive report writing.
Methods: AI efficiently generated personalized breast ultrasound screening preliminary reports, especially for benign and normal cases, which account for the majority. Doctors then make simple adjustments or corrections based on the preliminary AI report to generate the final report quickly. The approach has been trained and tested using a database of 4809 breast tumor instances.
Results: Experimental results indicate that this pipeline improves doctors' work efficiency by up to 90%, greatly reducing repetitive work.
Conclusion: Personalized report generation is more widely recognized by doctors in clinical practice than non-intelligent reports based on fixed templates or options to fill in the blanks.

This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of ultrasonography in assessing the response of clipped axillary lymph nodes to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Between February 2022 and September 2023, 43 patients who underwent axillary lymph node marking for targeted axillary dissection were retrospectively analyzed. Ultrasonography parameters such as the number, size, shape, cortical thickness, hilum status, and treatment response of the clipped lymph node were assessed.

Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has the highest sensitivity for breast cancer detection compared to other breast imaging modalities such as mammography and ultrasound. As a functional modality, it captures the increased angiogenic activity of breast cancer through gadolinium-based contrast enhancement. Normal breast tissue also enhances, albeit in distinct patterns termed background parenchymal enhancement (BPE).

Breast Imaging Department, Red Cross Hospital Munich, Munich, Germany.
Background: A significant proportion of false positive recalls of mammography-screened women is due to benign breast cysts and simple fibroadenomas. These lesions appear mammographically as smooth-shaped dense masses and require the recalling of women for a breast ultrasound to obtain complementary imaging information. They can be identified safely by ultrasound with no need for further assessment or treatment.
