Texture Analysis of DCE-MRI Intratumoral Subregions to Identify Benign and Malignant Breast Tumors

To evaluate the potential of the texture features extracted from dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) intratumoral subregions to distinguish benign from malignant breast tumors.A total of 299 patients with pathologically verified breast tumors who underwent breast DCE-MRI examination were enrolled in this study, including 124 benign cases and 175 malignant cases. The whole tumor area was semi-automatically segmented on...
