Contrast Enhancement of Mammograms for Rapid Detection of Microcalcification Clusters
Introduction Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer among women. Early detection of breast cancer is the key to reducing the associated mortality rate. The presence of microcalcifications clusters (MCCs) is one of the earliest signs of breast cancer. Due to poor imaging contrast of mammograms and noise contamination, radiologists may overlook some diagnostic signs, specially t...
متن کاملHybrid Microcalcification Detection In Mammograms
This paper presents a combined system for detecting microcalcifications in mammographic images. The proposed approach analyses the mammograms using the parallel combination of two methods. One of the methods is a heuristic approach that is based on features used by humans to descript microcalcifications. Second approach applies a hierarchical neural structure trained on images already interpret...
متن کاملMicrocalcification Detection in Digitized Mammograms: A Neurobiologically-Inspired Approach
A Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) system is a set of automatic or semi-automatic tools developed to assist radiologists in the detection and/or classification of abnormalities presented in diagnostic images of different modalities. Although on the early phase of research and development CAD systems were criticized by some computer scientists; regardless of this criticism, nowadays’ experimental ...
متن کاملMicrocalcification Detection in Full Field Digital Mammograms
In this paper we present a complete system to detect breast cancer. Main objective is to support radiologists with automatic, semantic based, search methods directly over medical images. The complete step of microcalcification detection in mammography images is presented. We use a three stage algorithm that allows the detection and classification of microcalcification with satisfactory results.
متن کاملAutomatic microcalcification and cluster detection for digital and digitised mammograms
In this paper we present a knowledge-based approach for the automatic detection of microcalcifications and clusters in mammographic images. Our proposal is based on using local features extracted from a bank of filters to obtain a local description of the microcalcifications morphology. The developed approach performs an initial training step in order to automatically learn and select the most ...
