IntroandMotivation • USA: • 1 woman dies of breast cancer every 13 minutes • In 2011: • estimated 230,480 newcases ofinvasivecancer • 39,520 women are expected to die • Source: U.S. Breast Cancer Statistics, 2011 AMIA 2011
IntroandMotivation • Portugal: • Per year: • 4,500 new cases • 1,500 deaths (33%) • Source: Liga Portuguesa Contra o Cancro - September 2011 AMIA 2011
IntroandMotivation • Mammography • MRI • Ultrasound • Biopsies AMIA 2011
IntroandMotivation • Image-guidedpercutaneous core needlebiopsy • standard for thediagnosisofsuspiciousfindings • Over 700,000 womenundergobreast core biopsyinthe US • Imperfect: biopsiescanbeinconclusivein5-15% of cases • ≈ 35,000-105,000 oftheabovewillrequireadditionalbiopsies AMIA 2011
IntroandMotivation • Breastbiopsies: • Fine needlebreastbiopsy • Stereotacticbreastbiopsy • Ultrasound-guided core biopsy • Excisionalbiopsy • MRI-guided AMIA 2011
Objectives • Hypotheses • Canwelearncharacteristicsofinconclusivebiopsies? • Canweimprovetheclassiferbyaddingexpertknowledge? AMIA 2011
Terminology • Inconclusivebiopsies: “non-definitive”: • Discordantbiopsies • Highrisklesions • Atypicalductalhyperplasia • Lobular carcinoma insitu • Radial scar • etc. • Insufficientsampling AMIA 2011
MaterialsandMethods • Data collected • Oct1st, 2005 to Dec 31st, 2008 • Tools • WEKA • Aleph • Validation: leave-one-outcrossvalidation • Resultstested for statisticalsignificance AMIA 2011

Data distribution • 94 non-concordant cases wentthroughadditionalprocedures (e.g., excision) • 15 were “upgraded” frombenign to malignant • Ourpopulation: 15+/79- • Task: find a distinctionbetween upgrades andnon-upgrades AMIA 2011
Data Features AMIA 2011
WEKA andAleph • Data cleaning, singletable • 15-fold stratifiedcross-validation (leave-one-out) • WEKA (BayesTAN) andAleph • Withoutexpertknowledge • Withexpertknowledge AMIA 2011
WEKA andAleph • Waikato Environment for KnowledgeAnalysis • Collectionofmachinelearningalgorithmsand data miningtasks • use “propositionalized” data (flattable) • ALearningEngine for ProposingHypotheses • InductiveLogicProgramming (ILP) system • Knowledgerepresentation: firstorderrules AMIA 2011
Method Learnrulesabouthowandwhynon-definitive cases are “upgraded” Otherrules (simple) providedby a specialist Combine Newrules AMIA 2011
Modelling upgrades withoutexpertknowledge • Alephlearningonthe 94 cases (15+/79-) • Exampleofrulelearned upgrade(A) IF bxneedlegauge(A,9) AND abndisappeared10(A,0) AND mass01(A,1) AND anotherlesionbxatsametime01(A,0). [4+/0-] AMIA 2011
ExamplesofExpertrules (1) Upgrade increases on stereo if calcifications and ADH are present upgrade(A) IF pathdx(A,atypical_ductal_hyperplasia) AND calcifications(A,’a,f’) AND biopsyprocedure(A, stereo). (2) Upgrade increases on US(Ultra-Sound) if high BIRADS category upgrade(A) IF concordance(A,d) AND mammobirads(A,4B/4C/5). AMIA 2011
