Abstract

The quality of life of breast cancer survivors is maintained by minimizing adverse effects on their physical appearance. In this study, we present an automated method for computing a common measure of breast symmetry, the normalized Breast Retraction Assessment (pBRA), from routine clinical photographs taken to document breast reconstruction procedures.
