ABSTRACT: Breast cancer is the most common cancer and the main cause of cancer-related deaths in women around the world. Early detection reduces the number of deaths. Automated breast ultrasound (ABUS) is a new and promising screening method for examining the entire breast. Volumetric ABUS examination is time-consuming, and lesions may be missed during the examination. Therefore, computer-aided cancer diagnosis in ABUS volume is highly expected to help the physician for breast cancer screening. In this research, we presented 3D structures based on UNet, ResUNet, and UNet++ for the automatic detection of cancer in ABUS volume to speed up examination while providing high detection sensitivity with low false positives (FPs). The three investigated approaches were evaluated on equal datasets in terms of training and testing as well as with proportional hyperparameters. Among the proposed approaches in classification and segmentation problems, the UNet++ approach was able to achieve more acceptable results. The UNet++ approach on the dataset of the Tumor Segmentation, Classification, and Detection Challenge on Automated 3D Breast Ultrasound 2023 (Named TSCD-ABUS2023) was able to achieve Accuracy=0.9911 and AUROC=0.9761 in classification and Dice=0.4930 in segmentation.

But a Telegram statement also said: "Any requests related to political censorship or limiting human rights such as the rights to free speech or assembly are not and will not be considered." Donโt publish new content at nighttime. Since not all users disable notifications for the night, you risk inadvertently disturbing them. During a meeting with the president of the Supreme Electoral Court (TSE) on June 6, Telegram's Vice President Ilya Perekopsky announced the initiatives. According to the executive, Brazil is the first country in the world where Telegram is introducing the features, which could be expanded to other countries facing threats to democracy through the dissemination of false content. Itโs yet another bloodbath on Satoshi Street. As of press time, Bitcoin (BTC) and the broader cryptocurrency market have corrected another 10 percent amid a massive sell-off. Ethereum (EHT) is down a staggering 15 percent moving close to $1,000, down more than 42 percent on the weekly chart. Earlier, crypto enthusiasts had created a self-described โmeme appโ dubbed โgmโ app wherein users would greet each other with โgmโ or โgood morningโ messages. However, in September 2021, the gm app was down after a hacker reportedly gained access to the user data.
