  • Breast cancer therapy is particularly complex. Case- based reasoning (CBR) is an approach that can support clinicians when prescribing a therapy, and that is able to explain its recommendation to the clinicians. In a previous work, we proposed a visual CBR approach for helping clinicians to choose a treatment between four main categories (surgery, chemother- apy,...). However, these are broad categories and clinicians need more details about the treatment, e.g. several surgeries exist such as lumpectomy. Here, we extend our visual CBR approach for fully supporting the therapy for breast cancer, using a hierarchical approach: first, decide the category, then decide the exact treatment, etc.
