Computer Assisted Cancer Device - 3D Imaging

Abstract

The technical objective of the Computer Assisted Cancer Device project is to develop a platform technology that will allow for a significant improvement in the accuracy of interpreting mammograms through the use of Second Generation Computer Assisted Detection (2nd Generation CAD) that is designed for using not only the current year's screening mammograms (as is common in first generation commercial CAD) but also any additional clinically relevant information (e.g. prior mammograms, other sensors like 3D ultrasound/MRI/IR, participant history, etc.). This 2nd Generation CAD platform will be used to provide procedure based" CAD advice to the doctors.
