Abstract
A multi-modality cancer screening and diagnosis system fuses CAD information obtained by imaging an immobilized patient using multiple different image acquisition systems to provide a single fused CAD data set. Combining the CAD results of multiple modalities into a single, rich, data set allows the strengths of each imaging modality to be leveraged to improve the sensitivity and specificity of breast cancer diagnosis. The CAD results may be used, together with fused image data, to train a CAD algorithm which may be used to directly process a fused multi-mode image data set.
