Localization of contrast-enhanced breast lesions in ultrafast screening MRI using deep convolutional neural networks.

• Deep convolutional neural networks could be utilized to automatically pinpoint breast lesions in screening MRI with high sensitivity. • False positive predictions significantly increased when the detection models were tested on highly unbalanced test sets with more normal scans. • Dynamic enhancement patterns of breast lesions during contrast inflow learned by the long short-term memory networks helped to reduce false positive predictions.
