Flexible Radial Data Acquisition and Image Reconstruction Strategies for Breast Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) has a high sensitivity (71- 100%) for detecting breast cancers. DCE-MRI is approximately twice as sensitive as mammography for patients who are genetically predisposed to breast cancer, who have an elevated lifetime risk (up to 85%) of …

A coherent point drift algorithm for breast image registration via surface markers
Breast Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a reliable imaging tool for localization and evaluation of lesions prior to breast conserving surgery (BCS). MR images typically will be used to determine the size and location of the tumours before making the incision in order to minimize the amount of …
