Abstract:
Abstract Introduction: Mammographic breast density is among the strongest risk factors for breast cancer. However, breast density is typically assessed subjectively by the radiologist according to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) based on 2 dimensional (2D) digital mammography (DM) images. Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) is quickly replacing DM and allows more detailed volumetric imaging of the breast. Advances in radiomics, the high-throughput extraction of radiologic features, has enabled characterization of breast parenchymal complexity beyond breast density alone. The purpose of this study was to compare the performance of volumetric parenchymal pattern analysis from DBT and DM with conventional breast density measurement with respect to breast cancer risk estimation. Methods: We performed a case control study among women with concurrent DM and DBT screening (Selenia Dimensions, Hologic Inc.) at our institution between 3/2011-12/2014. Cases were diagnosed with breast cancer within 1 year of screening; controls were confirmed negative or benign at 1 year follow-up, matched on race (Black, White, other/unknown) and age (5-year bins). After exclusions for imaging artifacts, craniocaudal (CC) and mediolateral oblique (MLO) views for 187 cases and 737 controls, in six image formats were assessed: 1) raw (“FOR PROCESSING”) DM; 2) processed (“FOR PRESENTATION”) DM; 3) raw DBT central projection; 4) processed DBT central projection; 5) DBT central reconstructed slice; and 6) DBT reconstructed stack. For cases, we analyzed the breast contralateral to cancer diagnosis; for controls the same breast as the matched case. We extracted radiomic features using a lattice-based approach with the publicly available CaPTk software, averaging features for each breast over CC and MLO views. We examined 3 lattice window sizes (6.4, 12.8, and 25.6 mm) and 23 resolutions for image resampling (0.075 - 2mm). We performed PCA on the resulting 487 features for each combination of window size and resolution and built conditional logistic regression models to assess the association of the first 7 principal components with breast cancer, with models including age, BMI, and BI-RADS density. For each image type we calculated the model C-statistic at all window sizes and resolutions, for a total of 2304 experimental conditions. Results: Features from reconstructed DBT scans had on average higher C-statistics across all experimental conditions. A model using only age, BMI, and BI-RADS density had a C-statistic of 0.61. Models using radiomic features plus age, BMI, and BI-RADS density had mean C-statistic of 0.68 (IQR 0.68, 0.69) for reconstructed DBT scans; for all other image types, the mean C-statistic ranged from 0.64 to 0.66. Conclusions: Incorporating volumetric breast parenchymal patterns from DBT improves breast cancer risk estimation beyond markers derived from DM and beyond conventional BI-RADS density.

Abstract:
Purpose: the aim of the study was to explain why breast lesions are enhanced by contrast medium at MR imaging and to elucidate the histopathological basis for the overlap in the enhancement patterns of benign and malignant breast lesions Material and Methods: Ten invasive breast carcinomas and 10 benign breast lesions were selected for the study. of the 10 carcinomas, 5 showed a strong and early contrast enhancement, and 5 did not. of the 10 benign lesions, 5 showed a strong and early contrast enhancement, and 5 showed no enhancement. the following morphometric variables were evaluated: proliferation cell index of neoplastic parenchymal cells, S-phase fraction, nuclear ploidy analysed by image DNA-cytometry, microvessel density, and the percentage proportion of the interstitial area Results: Contrast enhancement was related to the proliferating activity of the hyperplastic or neoplastic parenchymal cells and was inversely correlated with the interstitial area in carcinomas as well as in benign tumours and non-neo-plastic lesions of the breast Conclusion: Morphometric variables play an important role in the general mechanism of MR contrast enhancement in examinations of the breast and explain the histopathological basis for the overlap in the enhancement patterns of benign and malignant breast lesions

Abstract:
Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in women. However, the exact cause(s) of breast cancer still remains unknown. Early detection, precise identification of women at risk, and application of appropriate disease prevention measures are by far the most effective way to tackle breast cancer. There are more than 70 common genetic susceptibility factors included in the current non-image-based risk prediction models (e.g., the Gail and the Tyrer-Cuzick models). Image-based risk factors, such as mammographic densities and parenchymal patterns, have been established as biomarkers but have not been fully incorporated in the risk prediction models used for risk stratification in screening and/or measuring responsiveness to preventive approaches. Within computer aided mammography, automatic mammographic tissue segmentation methods have been developed for estimation of breast tissue composition to facilitate mammographic risk assessment. This paper presents a comprehensive review of automatic mammographic tissue segmentation methodologies developed over the past two decades and the evidence for risk assessment/density classification using segmentation. The aim of this review is to analyse how engineering advances have progressed and the impact automatic mammographic tissue segmentation has in a clinical environment, as well as to understand the current research gaps with respect to the incorporation of image-based risk factors in non-image-based risk prediction models.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTSecond and third degree burns on breasts at preadolescent period may cause severe breast deformations. This deformation can be variable depending on severity and location of the burns, personal adolescent patterns, and treatment modality in acute burn period. A 21 year old female patient admitted to our department for her breast deformation due to burn contracture at the inferior pole of the right breast. On physical examination we defined that development of the volume of the right breast was equal to the left, and inferior pole of the right breast was flattened due to contracture, and nipple was projected to inferior. We found that inframammary crease of the right breast was 2 cm lower than that of left; andthe distance of nipple-inframamary crease was 4.7 cm while areola-inframmary crease was 2 cm. New nipple-areola complex level was identified according to left breast’s level. Medial and lateral lines were planned to merge inferiorly at 2 cm above inframmary crease in a plan similar to vertical mammaplasty. Superior pedicle carrying nipple areola was desepitelised. Lower parenchymal V flap was transposed superiorly and attached to the pectoral muscle. Inferior parts of the lateral and medial glandular flaps were excised to form new inframammary crease. The desired laxity of skin at the lower pole was obtained by performing a new Z- plasty between lateral and medial skin flaps. Breast symmetry was confirmed by postoperative objective measurements between left and right breasts. Patient’s satisfaction and aesthetic appearance levels were high. Breasts deformation patterns caused by burns, trauma and mass exsicion due to cancer could not be addressed with traditional defined techniques. Special deformations can be corrected by custom made plannings as we presented here.

Abstract:
In nationwide mammography screening, thousands of mammography examinations must be processed. Each consists of two standard views of each breast, and each mammogram must be visually examined by an experienced radiologist to assess it for any anomalies. The ability to detect an anomaly in mammographic texture is important to successful outcomes in mammography screening and, in this study, a large number of mammograms were digitized with a highly accurate scanner; and textural features were derived from the mammograms as input data to a SONNET selforganizing neural network. The paper discusses how SONNET was used to produce a taxonomic organization of the mammography archive in an unsupervised manner. This process is subject to certain choices of SONNET parameters, in these numerical experiments using the craniocaudal view, and typically produced O(10), for example, 39 mammogram classes, by analysis of features from O() mammogram images. The mammogram taxonomy captured typical subtleties to discriminate mammograms, and it is submitted that this may be exploited to aid the detection of mammographic anomalies, for example, by acting as a preprocessing stage to simplify the task for a computational detection scheme, or by ordering mammography examinations by mammogram taxonomic class prior to screening in order to encourage more successful visual examination during screening. The resulting taxonomy may help train screening radiologists and conceivably help to settle legal cases concerning a mammography screening examination because the taxonomy can reveal the frequency of mammographic patterns in a population.

Abstract:
Inter-observer agreement was tested in the interpretation by 8 radiologists of mammograms from 45 women (for a total of 180 films per radiologist). The radiologists were representative of the whole range of those involved in mammography in the town of Torino, with a number of films read per year ranging from 100 to 4000. Out of the 45, 9 women were affected by breast cancer (histologically proved), 25 had benign disease (diagnosed with fine-needle aspiration) and 11 had normal breasts. Weighted kappa values were in the range 0.27–0.82 (median 0.60) for parenchymal patterns; 0.33–0.67 (0.48) for diagnosis in five categories; and 0.22–0.57 (0.38) for indications for further diagnostic tests. These values are comparable with those reported from other investigations.

In this study, we developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered Imaging Biomarker in Mammography (IBM) to discover unique mammographic patterns, beyond simple density evaluations, that are related to breast cancer. Methods: A total of 49,577 mammography exams were collected to develop the AI-powered IBM, in which 6,218 were cancers. First, we evaluated the hypothesis that the unaffected breast of cancer patients would have a different pattern than that of non-cancer patients, by training AI (IBM-A) with unaffected breast in cancer patients and breasts of non-cancer patients. We then utilized further images of the cancer patients to train AI (IBM-B). This time we used both affected and unaffected breasts of cancer patients and breasts of non-cancer patients, allowing IBM-B to additionally learn patterns related to breast cancer. The IBMs were evaluated using the internal data (n = 2,058) that included 719 cancers. To demonstrate the feasibility of early detection by using IBM-B, it was tested with external data (n = 4,158) from an independent institution. This included pre-index exams (n = 292) taken prior to index exams acquired at the time of cancer diagnosis. Results: With the internal data, IBM-A showed AUC of 0.842, suggesting that AI could learn the difference between the normal breast of cancer patients and non-cancer patients. With IBM-B, which used additional cancer images to train, AUC was improved to 0.852. Based on the internal validation, IBM-B was chosen for the external validation, in which pre-index examinations were used only. IBM-B showed AUC of 0.777 in discriminating the pre-index exams of cancer patients and those of non-cancer patients. The radiologists excluded the apparent missed cancers (n = 87) by reviewing the pre-index exams retrospectively. After, the recalculated AUC of IBM-B was 0.770, suggesting that IBM-B can distinguish between mammograms of patients who will develop breast cancer in the future and those who will not. The mean IBM-B scores in pre-index exams of cancer group (0.580) were significantly higher than those in the normal (0.258, P < 0.001) and benign (0.258, P < 0.001) groups. Conclusions: AI-powered IBM could detect the unique parenchymal pattern associated with high breast cancer risks, and we show the potential of the AI-powered IBM to be used as an independent biomarker to select high-risk populations based on mammography alone.[Table: see text]

Abstract:
Background: The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the radiomic analysis of contrast-enhanced spectral mammography (CESM) in discriminating between breast cancers and background parenchymal enhancement (BPE). Methods: This retrospective study included 38 patients that underwent CESM examinations for clinical purposes between January 2019–December 2020. A total of 57 malignant breast lesions and 23 CESM examinations with 31 regions of BPE were assessed through radiomic analysis using MaZda software. The parameters that demonstrated to be independent predictors for breast malignancy were exported into the B11 program and a k-nearest neighbor classifier (k-NN) was trained on the initial groups of patients and was tested using a validation group. Histopathology results obtained after surgery were considered the gold standard. Results: Radiomic analysis found WavEnLL_s_2 parameter as an independent predictor for breast malignancies with a sensitivity of 68.42% and a specificity of 83.87%. The prediction model that included CH1D6SumAverg, CN4D6Correlat, Kurtosis, Perc01, Perc10, Skewness, and WavEnLL_s_2 parameters had a sensitivity of 73.68% and a specificity of 80.65%. Higher values were obtained of WavEnLL_s_2 and the prediction model for tumors than for BPEs. The comparison between the ROC curves provided by the WaveEnLL_s_2 and the entire prediction model did not show statistically significant results (p = 0.0943). The k-NN classifier based on the parameter WavEnLL_s_2 had a sensitivity and specificity on training and validating groups of 71.93% and 45.16% vs. 60% and 44.44%, respectively. Conclusion: Radiomic analysis has the potential to differentiate CESM between malignant lesions and BPE. Further quantitative insight into parenchymal enhancement patterns should be performed to facilitate the role of BPE in personalized clinical decision-making and risk assessment.

Abstract:
Abstract Low serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is an important component of the metabolic syndrome and has recently been related to increased breast cancer risk in overweight and obese women. We therefore questioned whether serum HDL-C might be a biologically sound marker of breast cancer risk. We obtained cross-sectional data among 206 healthy women ages 25 to 35 years who participated in the Norwegian EBBA study. We included salivary ovarian steroid concentrations assessed by daily samples throughout one entire menstrual cycle, metabolic profile with measures of adiposity [body mass index (BMI) and truncal fat percentage], serum concentrations of lipids and hormones (insulin, leptin, testosterone, dehydroepiandrostendione sulfate, insulin-like growth factor-I, and its principal binding protein), and mammographic parenchymal pattern. We examined how components of the metabolic syndrome, including low serum HDL-C, were related to levels of hormones, and free estradiol concentration in particular, and studied predictors of mammographic parenchymal patterns in regression models. In women with BMI ≥ 23.6 kg/m2 (median), overall average salivary estradiol concentration dropped by 2.4 pmol/L (0.7 pg/mL; 13.2% change in mean for the total population) by each 0.33 mmol/L (12.8 mg/dl; 1SD) increase in serum HDL-C (P = 0.03; Pinteraction = 0.03). A subgroup of women characterized by both relatively high BMI (≥23.6 kg/m2) and high serum LDL-C/HDL-C ratio (≥ 2.08; 75 percentile) had substantially higher levels of salivary estradiol by cycle day than other women (P = 0.001). BMI was the strongest predictor of overall average estradiol with a direct relationship (P&lt; 0.001). Serum HDL-C was inversely related to serum leptin, insulin, and dehydroepiandrostendione sulfate (P &lt; 0.001, P &lt; 0.01, and P &lt; 0.05, respectively). There was a direct relationship between breast density and healthy metabolic profiles (low BMI, high serum HDL-C; P &lt; 0.001) and salivary progesterone concentrations (P &lt; 0.05). Our findings support the hypothesis that low serum HDL-C might reflect an unfavorable hormonal profile with, in particular, increased levels of estrogens and gives further clues to biomarkers of breast cancer risk especially in overweight and obese women.

Abstract:
Left–right (L–R) differences in mammographic parenchymal patterns are an early predictor of breast cancer risk; however, the basis for this asymmetry is unknown. Here, we use retinoid X receptor alpha heterozygous null (RXRα +/− ) mice to propose a developmental origin: perturbation of coordinated anterior–posterior (A–P) and L–R axial body patterning. We hypothesized that by analogy to somitogenesis—in which retinoic acid (RA) attenuation causes anterior somite pairs to develop L–R asynchronously—that RA pathway perturbation would likewise result in asymmetric mammary development. To test this, mammary glands of RXRα +/− mice were quantitatively assessed to compare left- versus right-side ductal epithelial networks. Unlike wild-type controls, half of the RXRα +/− thoracic mammary gland (TMG) pairs exhibited significant L–R asymmetry, with left-side reduction in network size. In RXRα +/− TMGs in which symmetry was maintained, networks had bilaterally increased size, with left networks showing greater variability in area and pattern. Reminiscent of posterior somites, whose bilateral symmetry is refractory to RA attenuation, inguinal mammary glands (IMGs) also had bilaterally increased network size, but no loss of symmetry. Together, these results demonstrate that mammary glands exhibit differential A–P sensitivity to RXRα heterozygosity, with ductal network symmetry markedly compromised in anterior but not posterior glands. As TMGs more closely model human breast development than IMGs, these findings raise the possibility that for some women, breast cancer risk may initiate with subtle axial patterning defects that result in L–R asymmetric growth and pattern of the mammary ductal epithelium. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Provocative questions in left–right asymmetry’.
