Pre-biopsy breast DCE-MRI pharmacokinetic parameters
obtained from three institutions were supplied as inputs
to a classification tree algorithm to identify imaging
biomarkers and corresponding cut-off values for accutae
breast cancer diagnosis. The results validate that the
DeltaKtrans parameter is the single most accurate
diagnostic marker among all DCE-MRI parameters.
Incorporation of additional parameters in the
classification tree approach further improves diagnostic
sensitivity and specificity.
