Temporal Mass Detection

چکیده
We present a method to prompt a clinician to "suspicious" dense regions in temporal mammogram sequences. The particular context that we envisage is mammogram screening, when the clinician compares the most recent mammogram to previous ones in order to detect significant changes. The method uses anisotropic filtering as a pre-processing step in order to significantly reduce the number of candidate masses, while preserving the important anatomical information about each mass. The method has already been tested on 15 temporal pairs, where pathology has been diagnosed in the most recent image.

Computer aided mass detection in mammography with temporal change analysis
This paper presents a method to extract change information from temporal mammogram pairs and to incorporate the temporal change information in the malignant mass classification. In this method, a temporal mammogram registration framework which is based on spatial relations between regions of interest and graph matching was used to create correspondences between regions of current mammogram and ...
متن کاملChange detection from satellite images based on optimal asymmetric thresholding the difference image
As a process to detect changes in land cover by using multi-temporal satellite images, change detection is one of the practical subjects in field of remote sensing. Any progress on this issue increase the accuracy of results as well as facilitating and accelerating the analysis of multi-temporal data and reducing the cost of producing geospatial information. In this study, an unsupervised chang...
متن کاملEarly detection of epileptic seizures based on parameter identification of neural mass model
Physiologically based models are attractive for seizure detection, as their parameters can be explicitly related to neurological mechanisms. We propose an early seizure detection algorithm based on parameter identification of a neural mass model. The occurrence of a seizure is detected by analysing the time shift of key model parameters. The algorithm was evaluated against the manual scoring of...
متن کاملInvestigating the applicability of conventional vegetation indices for vegetation change detection in different environmental conditions
Vegetation indices have been developed to characterize and extract the Earth's vegetation cover from space using satellite images. For detection of vegetation changes, usually temporal images are independently analyzed or vegetation index differencing is implemented. A review on previous studies reveal that, in spite of developing several vegetation indices, to extract vegetation cover or veget...
متن کاملvegetation change detection using multi-temporal remotly sensed data during recent three decades by artificial intelligence technique (Case study: protected area of Bashgol)
Quantitative and qualitative information of vegetation and its changes in duration of time as a basic foundation of determination of habitat quality, priority of protected area and also determination of price of ecosystem services in order to optimum management of natural resources and sustainable development is a very important technical point. In other hand, researchers are interested in rem...
