Temporal changes in mammographic breast density and breast cancer risk among women with benign breast disease
IntroductionBenign breast disease (BBD) and high mammographic breast density (MBD) are prevalent and independent risk factors for invasive breast...

Associations of stem cell markers CD44, CD24 and ALDH1A1 with mammographic breast density in women with benign breast biopsies
BackgroundWe examined associations of CD44, CD24 and ALDH1A1 breast stem cell markers with mammographic breast density (MBD), a well-established...

Improving lesion detection in mammograms by leveraging a Cycle-GAN-based lesion remover
BackgroundThe wide heterogeneity in the appearance of breast lesions and normal breast structures can confuse computerized detection algorithms. Our...

Deep learning of mammogram images to reduce unnecessary breast biopsies: a preliminary study
BackgroundPatients with a Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) 4 mammogram are currently recommended for biopsy. However, 70–80% of the...

Mammary collagen architecture and its association with mammographic density and lesion severity among women undergoing image-guided breast biopsy
BackgroundElevated mammographic breast density is a strong breast cancer risk factor with poorly understood etiology. Increased deposition of...

Using a combination of superb microvascular imaging and other auxiliary ultrasound techniques to increase the accuracy of gray-scale ultrasound for breast masses
BackgroundBreast ultrasound is highly sensitive, but its specificity is not as high for detecting malignant lesions. Auxiliary modalities like...

Somatic mutations in benign breast disease tissues and association with breast cancer risk
BackgroundBenign breast disease (BBD) is a risk factor for breast cancer (BC); however, little is known about the genetic alterations present at the...

Quantitative characterization of breast lesions and normal fibroglandular tissue using compartmentalized diffusion-weighted model: comparison of intravoxel incoherent motion and restriction spectrum imaging
BackgroundTo compare the compartmentalized diffusion-weighted models, intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) and restriction spectrum imaging (RSI), in...

Infiltrating immune cells in benign breast disease and risk of subsequent invasive breast cancer
BackgroundIt is well established that tumors are antigenic and can induce an immune response by the host, entailing lymphocytic infiltration of the...

Diagnostic accuracy of a three-protein signature in women with suspicious breast lesions: a multicenter prospective trial
BackgroundMammography screening has been proven to detect breast cancer at an early stage and reduce mortality; however, it has low accuracy in young...

Collagen fiber features and COL1A1: are they associated with elastic parameters in breast lesions, and can COL1A1 predict axillary lymph node metastasis?
BackgroundThis study aimed to explore whether collagen fiber features and collagen type I alpha 1 (COL1A1) are related to the stiffness of breast...
