PMID- 31806500 OWN - NLM STAT- MEDLINE DCOM- 20210812 LR - 20210812 IS - 1879-291X (Electronic) IS - 0301-5629 (Linking) VI - 46 IP - 3 DP - 2020 Mar TI - Deformable Mapping Method to Relate Lesions in Dedicated Breast CT Images to Those in Automated Breast Ultrasound and Digital Breast Tomosynthesis Images. PG - 750-765 LID - S0301-5629(19)31553-4 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.ultrasmedbio.2019.10.016 [doi] AB - This work demonstrates the potential for using a deformable mapping method to register lesions between dedicated breast computed tomography (bCT) and both automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) images (craniocaudal [CC] and mediolateral oblique [MLO] views). Two multi-modality breast phantoms with external fiducial markers attached were imaged by the three modalities. The DBT MLO view was excluded for the second phantom. The automated deformable mapping algorithm uses biomechanical modeling to determine corresponding lesions based on distances between their centers of mass (d(COM)) in the deformed bCT model and the reference model (DBT or ABUS). For bCT to ABUS, the mean d(COM) was 5.2 +/- 2.6 mm. For bCT to DBT (CC), the mean d(COM) was 5.1 +/- 2.4 mm. For bCT to DBT (MLO), the mean d(COM) was 4.7 +/- 2.5 mm. This application could help improve a radiologist's efficiency and accuracy in breast lesion characterization, using multiple imaging modalities.
