Objective:

To improve breast cancer detection in mammograms through a hybrid deep learning model that enhances tumor segmentation and classification.

Key Findings:
  • Achieved accuracy of 93.8%, sensitivity of 94.1%, specificity of 92.7%, precision of 91.2%, F1 score of 92.6%, Dice coefficient of 0.89, and IoU of 0.82 on CBIS-DDSM and DDSM datasets.
  • Quantum-SpinalNet enhances segmentation and classification precision, supporting clinical diagnostic workflows.
Interpretation:

The Quantum-SpinalNet framework demonstrates significant improvements in mammographic breast cancer detection, addressing challenges in tumor segmentation and classification.

Limitations:
  • Dependence on large, annotated datasets for training remains a challenge.
  • Potential variability in algorithm performance based on imaging methods and population profiles.
Conclusion:

Quantum-SpinalNet offers a robust and interpretable solution for breast cancer detection in mammograms, with the potential to enhance clinical diagnostic accuracy.
