Research Abstract |
Breast ultrasonography can be used for compensating image interpretation of mammography. It has been often used, along with mammography, for screening purpose in Japan because Japanese women tend to have dense breasts. Whole breast ultrasound (WBUS) imaging is superior to the conventional breast ultrasound imaging for the screening in the way that it does not depend on operators, contains whole breast data, and allows double reading and longitudinal study. When both mammograms and WBUS images were obtained in the screening, it would be useful if a lesion found in either modality can be automatically annotated in the other modality image. We investigated a computerized method for registration of breast masses in WBUS volume data and other modality image.
