چکیده
This research investigated the state of art of computer aided detection systems for digital mammograms, and evaluated the related techniques in image pre-processing, feature extraction and classification of digital mammograms. Furthermore, this paper explored the further research directions for next generation CAD for mammograms. It was identified that computer-aided detection techniques for masses and microcalcifications have been extensively studied, but the detection techniques for architectural distortion and asymmetry in mammograms still are challenges.

On the other hand, with CAD and digital mammography, it is necessary to collect so-called raw digital data from an acquisition system. To develop CAD software, it is necessary to work in conjunction with acquisition systems. Furthermore, CAD is an independent instrument with analog mammography; on the other hand, with digital mammography, CAD will be one of the interpretation functions of the r...
