Breast cancer is reported to be the second deadliest cancer among cancerous woman. Statistics show that the case of breast cancer in the world is increasing every year. By analyzing a mammogram, pathologists could detect the presence of micro calcification in ones breast. However, micro calcification could be classified into benign and malignant. The later indicates the presence of cancer. Computer-Aided...
Clustered micro calcifications (MCs) are one of the early signs of breast cancer. In this paper, we propose a new computer aided diagnosis (CAD) system for automatic detection of MCs in two steps. First, pixels corresponding to potential micro calcifications are found using a multilayer feed-forward neural network. The input of this network consists of 4 wavelet and 2 gray-level features. The output...
Clusters of microcalcifications in mammograms are an important early sign of breast cancer in women. In this paper an approach is proposed to develop a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system that can be very helpful for radiologist in diagnosing microcalcifications' patterns in digitized mammograms earlier and faster than typical screening programs. The proposed method has been implemented in three...
The clustered microcalcification on X-ray mammogram provides an important cue for early detection of breast cancer. Texture analysis methods can be applied to detect clustered micro calcifications in digitized mammograms. In this paper a novel two stage method for mammogram segmentation is implemented to facilitate automatic segmentation of micro calcification. The first stage is the Modified combined...
