The most reliable way to diagnose breast cancer in the current practice of medicine is through pathological examination of a biopsy which has a certain level of subjectivity. To reduce this subjectivity and have a mathematical model for diagnosing breast cancer tissues, a fully automatic method based on microscopic biopsy image is presented. The novel technique is based on a four-step procedure: the...
In healthcare, inter-institutional process support implicates decentralized and ad-hoc workflows. From the perspective of system integration, the autonomy of the sites which are participating in a healthcare network is mostly untouchable. Traditional activity-oriented workflow models or content-oriented workflow models do not provide adequate support in such system environments and workflow scenarios...
Today Breast cancer is the leading cause of death of women. Currently the effective method for early detection and screening of breast cancers is Ultrasonography. But the high rate of false positives in mammography causes a large number of unnecessary biopsies. Ultrasonography is an important adjunct to mammography in breast cancer detection. The accuracy rate of breast ultrasound can reach a high...
Breast cancer is one of the biggest killers in the western world, and early diagnosis is essential for improved prognosis. The shape of the breast varies hugely between the scenarios of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging (patient lies prone, breast hanging down under gravity), X-ray mammography (breast strongly compressed) and ultrasound or biopsy/surgery (patient lies supine), rendering image fusion...
