Adaptive Mean Shift Modified Expectation Maximization (ams Mem) Framework for Breast Mri Segmentation

Breast cancer is found to be the most common form of cancer found in women which is the leading cause for cancer death worldwide. Detection of abnormality at the earliest increases the chances of successful treatment and can reduce the mortality rate. MRI is a widely used medical imaging technique. Noise in MRI negatively affects image processing and analysis works. The main objective of preprocessing stage is to improve the quality of image by removing the irrelevant noises and unwanted portions in the image so as to convert the image into some other representation that is more meaningful, thus making it easier to interpret the details in an image. In this proposed work various filtering algorithms are discussed and compared and an automated scheme for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) breast segmentation is proposed.
