Deep Learning in Breast Cancer Imaging: A Decade of Progress and Future Directions
Breast cancer has reached the highest incidence rate worldwide among all
malignancies since 2020. Breast imaging plays a significant role in early
diagnosis and intervention to improve the outcome of breast cancer patients. In
the past decade, deep learning has shown remarkable progress in breast cancer
imaging analysis, holding great promise in interpreting the rich information
and complex context of breast imaging modalities. Considering the rapid
improvement in the deep learning technology and the increasing severity of
breast cancer, it is critical to summarize past progress and identify future
challenges to be addressed. In this paper, we provide an extensive survey of
deep learning-based breast cancer imaging research, covering studies on
mammogram, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, and digital pathology images
over the past decade. The major deep learning methods, publicly available
datasets, and applications on imaging-based screening, diagnosis, treatment
response prediction, and prognosis are described in detail. Drawn from the
findings of this survey, we present a comprehensive discussion of the
challenges and potential avenues for future research in deep learning-based
breast cancer imaging.Comment: Survey, 41 page
