Breast Cancer Dataset, Classification and Detection Using Deep Learning

Healthcare (Basel). 2022 Nov 29;10(12):2395. doi: 10.3390/healthcare10122395.

Abstract

Incorporating scientific research into clinical practice via clinical informatics, which includes genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, and biostatistics, improves patients' treatment. Computational pathology is a growing subspecialty with the potential to integrate whole slide images, multi-omics data, and health informatics. Pathology and laboratory medicine are critical to diagnosing cancer. This work will review existing computational and digital pathology methods for breast cancer diagnosis with a special focus on deep learning. The paper starts by reviewing public datasets related to breast cancer diagnosis. Additionally, existing deep learning methods for breast cancer diagnosis are reviewed. The publicly available code repositories are introduced as well. The paper is closed by highlighting challenges and future works for deep learning-based diagnosis.

Keywords: breast cancer diagnosis; deep learning; machine learning; malignant growth; tumor.
