Application of MRI Image Based on Computer Semiautomatic Segmentation Algorithm in the Classification Prediction of Breast Cancer Histology

OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to investigate the predictive classification accuracy of computer semiautomatic segmentation algorithm for the histological grade of breast tumors through the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination. METHODS: Five dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI regions of interest (ROIs) were captured using computer semiautomatic segmentation method, referring to the entire tumor area, tumor border area, proximal gland area, middle gland area, and distal gland area. According to the mutual information maximum protocol, the corresponding five ROIs were extracted from diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) combined with DCE-MRI images. To use the features in the nonoverlapping area of DWI image and DCE-MRI image as elements, a single-variable logistic regression model was established corresponding to element characteristics. After multiple training, the model was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under curve (AUC). RESULTS: This DCE-MRI combined with DWI was superior to DCE-MRI and DW in the prediction of tumor area features. To use DCE-MRI or DWI alone was less effective than DCE-MRI combined with DWI. The DWI combined DCE-MRI demonstrated good regional segmentation effects in the tumour area, with luminal A value being 0.767 and the area under curve (AUC) value being 0.758. After optimization, the AUC value of the tumor area was 0.929, indicating that classification effects can be enhanced by combining the two imaging methods, which complemented each other. CONCLUSIONS: The DWI combined DCE-MRI imaging has improved the early diagnosis effects of breast cancer by predicting the occurrence of breast cancer through the labeling of biomarkers.
