Abstract
A method for processing breast tissue image data includes obtaining image data of a patient's breast tissue, processing the image data to generate a set of image slices, the image slices collectively depicting the patient's breast tissue; feeding image slices of the set through each of a plurality of object-recognizing modules, each of the object-recognizing modules being configured to recognize a respective type of object that may be present in the image slices; combining objects recognized by the respective object-recognizing modules to generate a synthesized image of the patient's breast tissue; and displaying the synthesized image.
