My PhD project is a result of an international collaboration between Lund University and Siemens Healthineers. The focus with the project is investigating the possible benefits of synthetic mammography (SM) as supplemental imaging technique to digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in a screening setting. The goal of using SM is to add additional information to the radiologist and help improve decisio

We investigate the possibilities to use artificial intelligence (AI) to improve breast cancer screening with either standard digital mammography (DM) or digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), which can be seen as a kind of 3D mammography. Today DM is used for breast cancer screening. In order to detect as many cancers as possible, each image is read by two specialised breast radiologists. DBT can fin

Project description: DBTMI is motivated by a challenge of underdiagnosis and false positives (FPs) in breast cancer healthcare. Mammography screening reduces mortality by early cancer detection. It is limited by FPs and unnecessary biopsies, with related complications, anxiety, and burden on the healthcare system. MI maps local pressure on the breast compressed during x-ray exam. Increased pressur

Project description: Virtual Clinical Trials (VCTs) in medical imaging have been used to design, evaluate, and optimize imaging systems; to prototype clinical trials; and to assist with regulatory approval. VCTs are used as a rapid and cost-effective alternative to conventional clinical trials, allowing researchers to answer fundamental questions using in-silico simulations. My team of researchers

Project description: Women with a high risk for breast cancer are defined as having (i) a life-time risk of a new primary breast cancer >20%, based on the prevalence of hereditary gene mutation (BRCA1, BRCA2 etc.), (ii) a positive family history, or (iii) previously diagnosed breast cancer before 50 years of age. High-risk patients have a higher incidence of breast cancer, with lesions appearing e

The purpose of this project is to develop and evaluate three non-invasive examination methods for the diagnosis of breast tumors, namely photoacoustics, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and ultrasound-based tissue characteristics. It is our hope that the methods will be used for primary diagnostic of breast cancer, planning of breast cancer surgery but also to evaluate the given preoperative cance

Technology development pushes us to find new ways of working, also in breast screening. Breast screening has been organized in the same manner since the 1980's, apart from the switch from analogue to digital mammography (DM) in late 1990's, which was a huge practical leap forward. In Sweden and many northern European countries double-reading is practiced, where two breast radiologists independentl

This project aims to evaluate the use of mechanical imaging in breast cancer screening with mammography. Mechanical imaging can be used to measure the stiffness of the breast and identify local differences in stress at the surface of the breast. More malignant or aggressive tumours are more stiff compared to benign lesions, and that information has shown in previous studies that the technique coul

Mammography screening aims at reducing breast cancer mortality through early detection. Breast cancers that are missed or masked during the regular screening are often detected at later stages. Understanding the biology of different types of breast cancer in relation to the mammographic features will aid in early detection consequently improving the patient prognosis. To formulate radiological ris

Overall Aim: The overarching aim of the dissertation project is to develop a person-centred decision aid to support women in making informed decisions about participation in future breast cancer screening in Sweden. Emerging innovations such as artificial intelligence, new diagnostic methods, and research on individualised cancer screening are expected to significantly impact future screening prac
