Prediction of breast cancer molecular subtypes on DCE-MRI using convolutional neural network with transfer learning between two centers.

• Deep learning can be applied to differentiate breast cancer molecular subtypes. • The recurrent neural network using CLSTM could track the change of signal intensity in DCE images, and achieved a higher accuracy compared with conventional CNN during training. • For datasets acquired using different scanners with different imaging protocols, transfer learning provided an efficient method to re-tune the classification model and improve accuracy.
