[EN] Background and Objective: Breast density assessed from digital mammograms is a biomarker for higher risk of developing breast cancer. Experienced radiologists assess breast density using the Breast Image and Data ...
[EN] Background and Objective: Breast cancer is the most frequent cancer in women. The Spanish healthcare network established population-based screening programs in all Autonomous Communities, where mammograms of asymptomatic ...
[EN] Quality control of mammography units is necessary
to reduce the dose imparted to women as much as possible. Accurate characterization of the primary X-ray
spectra is very useful for this purpose. Obtaining primary ...
[EN] Breast density assessed from digital mammograms is a known biomarker related to a higher risk of developing breast cancer. Supervised learning algorithms have been implemented to determine this. However, the performance ...
