Safely reducing unnecessary benign breast biopsies by applying non-mass and DWI directional variance filters to ADC thresholding

BACKGROUND: Thresholding apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) maps obtained from Diffusion-Weighted-Imaging (DWI) has been proposed for identifying benign lesions that can safely avoid biopsy. The presence of malignancies with high ADC values leads to high thresholds, limiting numbers of avoidable b...
