Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide, after lung cancer. However, early detection of breast cancer can help to reduce death rates in breast cancer patients and also prevent cancer from spreading to other parts of the body. This work proposes a new method to design a bio-marker integrating Bayesian predictive models, pyRadiomics System and genetic algorithms to classify the benign and malignant lesions. The method allows one to evaluate two types of images: The radiologist-segmented lesion, and a novel automated breast cancer detection by the analysis of the whole breast. The results demonstrate only a difference of 12% of effectiveness for the cases of calcification between the radiologist generated segmentation and the automatic whole breast analysis, and a 25% of difference between the lesion and the breast for the cases of masses. In addition, our approach was compared against other proposed methods in the literature, providing an AUC = 0.86 for the analysis of images with lesions in breast calcification, and AUC = 0.96 for masses.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
