Computer aided automatic detection of malignant lesions in diffuse optical mammography.
PURPOSE Computer aided detection (CAD) data analysis procedures are introduced and applied to derive composite diffuse optical tomography (DOT) signatures of malignancy in human breast tissue. In contrast to previous optical mammography analysis schemes, the new statistical approach utilizes optical property distributions across multiple subjects and across the many voxels of each subject. The ...
متن کاملComputer Aided Detection in Mammography
Breast cancer is a major health concern being responsible for the second most number of deaths caused by cancer in women. Early detection is therefore crucial to help reduce the number of deaths. At the moment, mammography is the best tool available to screen for early breast cancer. However, the detection of lesions in mammograms is a difficult procedure due to several factors the most promine...
متن کاملComputer Aided Detection on Mammography
A typical definition of the Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD), found in literature, can be: A diagnosis made by a radiologist using the output of a computerized scheme for automated image analysis as a diagnostic aid. Often it is possible to find the expression Computer Aided Detection (CAD or CADe): this definition emphasizes the intent of CAD to support rather than substitute the human observer ...
متن کاملComputer-Aided Detection and Diagnosis in Mammography
Screening mammography is the most effective tool for early detection of breast cancer. In this procedure, radiologists scan x-ray images of the breast to locate signs of breast cancer. However it is not perfect and has low sensitivity for detection and low specificity for diagnosis. Various computer aided detection (CAD) and diagnosis (CADx) systems have been developed to aid radiologists. In t...
