Abstract

In this paper, we review the role played by breast magnetic resonance imaging in the detection and diagnosis of breast cancer. This is followed by a discussion of clinical decision support systems in medicine and their contributions in breast magnetic resonance imaging interpretation. We conclude by discussing the future of computer-aided diagnosis in breast magnetic resonance imaging.
