Malignant breast masses-conspicuity analysis in motionsimulated mammograms (2018)
Presentation / Conference
mammograms. Poster presented at The 2018 European Congress of Radiology (ECR), Vienna

The conspicuity of a mass represents a ratio between the contrast of a mass and its surrounding complexity. Measuring the conspicuity of lesions attempts to characterise the visibility of a lesion in terms of the imaging systems diagnostic capabiliti...
