Abstract
According to one embodiment, a mammography apparatus includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to acquire, as information on preliminary X-ray imaging for a breast of a subject, first information including at least one of an imaging condition, breast state information indicating a state of the breast, and/or information on the subject. The processing circuitry is configured to calculate an index for the breast based on the first information.
Claims16
A mammography apparatus, comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to:
- acquire, as information on preliminary X-ray imaging for a breast of a subject, first information including at least one of an imaging condition, breast state information indicating a state of the breast, and/or information on the subject;
- and
- calculate an index for the breast based on the first information,
- wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to acquire a preliminary image collected by the preliminary X-ray imaging and calculate the index for the breast based on the first information and the preliminary image;
- and
- wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to calculate the index for the breast by inputting the first information and the preliminary image into a trained model configured to calculate the index for the breast based on the first information and the preliminary image.
A mammography apparatus, comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to
- acquire, as information on preliminary X-ray imaging for a breast of a subject, first information including at least one of an imaging condition, breast state information indicating a state of the breast, and/or information on the subject;
- and
- calculate an index for the breast based on the first information,
- wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to calculate the index for the breast by inputting the first information into a trained model configured to calculate the index for the breast based on the first information.
A mammography apparatus, comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to
- acquire, as information on preliminary X-ray imaging for a breast of a subject, first information including at least one of an imaging condition, breast state information indicating a state of the breast, and/or information on the subject;
- and
- calculate an index for the breast based on the first information;
- wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to determine a process to be performed after the preliminary X-ray imaging based on the calculated index for the breast;
- and
- wherein the determined process includes at least one of a first process, a second process, and/or a third process, wherein the first process relates to at least one of imaging conditions for main imaging after the preliminary X-ray imaging and/or image processing conditions, the second process relates to a cancellation of the main imaging, and the third process relates to additional imaging.
A mammography apparatus, comprising:
- processing circuitry configured to
- acquire, as information on preliminary X-ray imaging for a breast of a subject first information including at least one of an imaging condition, breast state information indicating a state of the breast, and/or information on the subject;
- and
- calculate an index for the breast based on the first information,
- wherein the preliminary X-ray imaging and main imaging after the preliminary X-ray imaging are both X-ray imaging targeting the breast of the subject.
