بهسازی تصاویر ماموگرافی با استفاده از تبدیل موجک و فیلتر همومورفیک
Mammography is the most effective method for the early diagnosis of breast cancer diseases. As mammographic images contain low signal to noise ratio and low contrast, it becomes too difficult for radiologists to analyze mammogram. To deal with the above stated problems, it is very important to enhance the mammographic images using image processing methods. This paper introduces a new image enha...
متن کاملA Novel Breast Image Preprocessing For Full Field Digital Mammographic Segmentation and Risk Classification
To obtain optimal breast image quality during the image acquisition, a compression paddle is used to even the breast thickness. Clinical observation has indicated that breast peripheral areas may not be fully compressed, and may cause unexpected intensity and texture variation within these areas. Such breast parenchymal appearance discrepancies may not be desirable for tissue modelling within c...
متن کاملStatistical Evaluation of a Fully Automated Mammographic Breast Density Algorithm
Visual assessments of mammographic breast density by radiologists are used in clinical practice; however, these assessments have shown weaker associations with breast cancer risk than area-based, quantitative methods. The purpose of this study is to present a statistical evaluation of a fully automated, area-based mammographic density measurement algorithm. Five radiologists estimated density i...

Breast cancer continues to be a significant public health problem in the world. The diagnosing mammography method is the most effective technology for early detection of the breast cancer. However, in some cases, it is difficult for radiologists to detect the typical diagnostic signs, such as masses and microcalcifications on the mammograms. Dense region in digital mammographic images are usual...
متن کاملImprovement of Breast Cancer Detection Using Non-subsampled Contourlet Transform and Super-Resolution Technique in Mammographic Images
Introduction Breast cancer is one of the most life-threatening conditions among women. Early detection of this disease is the only way to reduce the associated mortality rate. Mammography is a standard method for the early detection of breast cancer. Today, considering the importance of breast cancer detection, computer-aided detection techniques have been employed to increase the quality of ma...
