Abstract
The experiments showed improved results when breast density information was taken into account. Moreover, the results obtained when using automatic breast density estimation outperformed those based on the manual annotations provided by expert radiologists. In this sense, the experiments showed that breast density information can be beneficial for CAD systems, and this information can be estimated robustly by an automatic procedure, which reduces the inter- and intra-class variability of the radiologists.
