Abstract
Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) may provide richer information than full-field digital mammography (FFDM). DBT data such as DBT slices may be processed based on deep learning techniques such as using a neural network, and the DBT slices may be divided into groups and a pre-determined number of representative images may be derived based on the grouping. The neural network may be configured to process the representative images to predict the presence or non-presence of a breast disease such as breast cancer.
