LESION SIGNATURE TO CHARACTERIZE PATHOLOGY FOR SPECIFIC SUBJECT

摘要

A system for identifying tissue includes a subject specific tissue signature (48) derived from an ultrasound image. The tissue signature has specified ranges of characteristics based on analysis of a reference tissue of a subject having a confirmed pathology. A searching module (140) is stored in memory and is configured to search through images (134) for a volume of the subject to identify tissues in the images for comparison. A comparison module (124) configured to identify tissue matches between the tissue signature of the reference tissue and the tissue signature of the tissues in the volume in accordance with a score based upon the specified ranges of characteristics.
