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 کاملComparing Methods for segmentation of Microcalcification Clusters in Digitized Mammograms
The appearance of microcalcifications in mammograms is one of the early signs of breast cancer. So, early detection of microcalcification clusters (MCCs) in mammograms can be helpful for cancer diagnosis and better treatment of breast cancer. In this paper a computer method has been proposed to support radiologists in detection MCCs in digital mammography. First, in order to facilitate and impr...
متن کاملDetection of Microcalcification Clusters in Mammograms Using Curvelet Transform
In this paper we present a new approach for computer aided detection of microcalcifications (MC) clusters in mammograms. The proposed method is done in two stages; the first stage is a preprocessing with histogram, in the second stage the ability of these filtered images in detecting microcalcification is done using the Curvelet Transform. The proposed method is applied to a database of 10 dens...
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 ...
