SCH: Topological Methods for Breast Tissue Quantification
To better understand breast cancer and its response to treatment, the key is to understand breast tissue architecture. Modifications to tissue architecture are a direct consequence of the rearrangement of fine- grained structures such as the fibroglandular tissue and vessels, brought about by events including, but not limited to angiogenesis, and treatments such as radiation therapy. Changes in breast structural topology has the potential to influence cancer risk, prognosis, and treatment response; however, this has not been extensively studied nor quantified. Existing work is limited only to analysis of features such as radiomics. This project, undertaken by a multi-disciplinary team…
