Breast-SlimView

Hera-MI
Breast-SlimView is a clinical decision support solution for 2D/3D mammography. It has learnt to detect what is normal from a database of mammograms, then, based on this normalized database, it learns to detect and highlight suspicious areas. Breast-SlimView’s algorithm automatically detects and removes all normal physiological areas (vessels, glandular tissue, fatty tissue and mammary gland) and replace them by artificial fat.
