2 SIGNIFICANCE Breast cancer is most common and leading cause of death in American women* Segmentation and classification of suspicious breast masses can avoid unnecessary biopsies Conventional segmentation algorithm requires an initial seed Sørensen Dice performance of , a measure of similarity of segmentation Core Needle biopsy for suspicious breast masses *Siegel RL, Miller KD, Jemal A. Cancer statistics, CA: a cancer journal for clinicians *Shulman LN, Willett W, Sievers A, Knaul FM. Breast Cancer in Developing Countries: Opportunities for Improved Survival.

3 GOALS Develop an automated real-time detection and segmentation of suspicious breast masses Currently ultrasonographers use the morphological and textural features to identify suspicious masses based on suggestions from American College of Radiology The suspicious masses are then scored based on the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) scale and is the basis for recommending core needle biopsy Automated detection process can aid in rapid localization of suspicious masses Automated segmentation and classification process can assist in assigning BI-RADS score and recommending biopsy

4 ULTRASOUND IMAGING Transducer Raw channel RF data Beam formed RF data In-phase quadrature data Post processed B-mode image B-mode image 4

5 MATERIALS AND METHODS 258 patients, 433 images from multiple cross-sections, 148 cases of BI-RADS malignant and 134 benign cases Equal number of images from General Electric LOGIQ E9 and Philips IU22 Algorithm: Multi U-net with majority voting Loss function: negative dice coefficient Testing in real-time on Titan xp (13.83 ms/image)

7 SEGMENTATION RESULTS-CONTD. Red outline = Expert segmentation 2(b) Blue outline = Predicted segmentation Dice coefficient = 0.94 B-mode image of a benign-cellular fibro epithelial mass. The mass has typical smooth boundaries of a benign mass and is oval in shape

8 SEGMENTATION RESULTS-CONTD. Red outline = Expert segmentation 3(a) 3(b) Blue outline = Predicted segmentation Dice coefficient = 0.88 B-mode image for benign fat necrosis with dystrophic calcifications. Notice the posterior acoustic shadowing beneath the benign mass

9 SEGMENTATION RESULTS-CONTD. Red outline = Expert segmentation 4(a) 4(b) Blue outline = Predicted segmentation Dice coefficient = 0.88 The biopsy result from the suspicious mass was malignant invasive/infiltrating ductal carcinoma, grade III. The irregular boundaries of the mass are typical of malignant masses which are usually challenging cases for segmentation algorithms

10 RESULTS: CINE CLIP 1 Benign fibroadenoma

11 CONTD. CINE CLIP 2 Invasive Ductal carcinoma G.II/III

12 CONCLUSION Mean Sørensen Dice coefficient of 0.82 Real-time application with no need for initial seed Can be used for segmentation and detection of suspicious breast masses Segmentation masks can be used for classification of suspicious masses Reduce localization time and aid sonographer in categorizing the suspicious mass Applications in point of care, mobile health monitoring, assisting sonographers Provides the expertise of an expert sonographer to sonographers in training
