Method and system for automatic classification of lesions in breast MRI

摘要

A method for classifying a lesion in an MRI includes acquiring a pre-contrast MR image. A magnetic contrast agent is administered. A set of post-contrast MR images are acquired. The acquired pre-contrast and post-contrast MR images are displayed. A manually entered value is received for a size of a lesion manually identified within the pre-contrast and post-contrast MR images. A manually entered value for an absorption/washout profile is received of the manually identified lesion. A risk of malignancy for the manually identified lesion is automatically determined based on the received size value and absorption/washout profile.
