    Microvascular Flow imaging (MV-Flow) significantly outperforms Color Doppler Flow Imaging (CDFI) in detecting breast tumor microvasculature.

  • 2

    MV-Flow achieved higher inter-observer agreement with a weighted Kappa of 0.68 compared to 0.51 for CDFI.

  • 3

    The median Vascular Index (VI) was significantly higher in malignant lesions (20.25) than in benign ones (3.10, P<0.001).

  • 4

    The K-Nearest Neighbors machine learning model achieved the best performance with an accuracy of 0.927 and an F1-score of 0.947.

  • 5

    Machine learning models integrating MV-Flow parameters can enhance diagnostic accuracy, providing objective clinical decision support.
