In this paper, researchers propose a machine learning approach to improve the accuracy of breast lesion detection using both Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) and Full Field Digital Mammograms (FFDM). The method leverages the complementary diagnostic signals from both modalities to learn high-level representations. This approach has been validated on a large-scale dataset, showing that it outperforms DBT- or FFDM-based models in detecting breast lesions.

Imagine you’re trying to find a small tumor in your breast. Doctors use special machines like Digital Breast Tomosynthesis (DBT) and Full Field Digital Mammograms (FFDM) to take pictures of your breasts. Both are good, but DBT is better at finding some kinds of tumors. However, it takes longer to get the results, which can be a problem. This paper suggests a new way to use both machines together to make tumor detection more accurate and faster.
