Temporal Variations in Apparent Breast Lesion Volume in Dynamic Contrast Enhanced Breast MR Imaging
Thomas Buelow,Rafael Wiemker,Lina Arbash Meinel,Lina Arbash Meinel,Hans Buurman,Ursula Kose,Gillian M. Newstead +6 more
TL;DR: Analysis of the apparent lesion volumes derived from these delineations and comparison to manual delineations showed that computerized segmentation is more robust and reproducible than manual segmentation, even if computer segmentations are computed on subtraction images derived from different dynamic phases of the DCE MRI study.
