Noise present in the digital mammograms directly influences the capability and competence of a classification task which makes de-noising a challenging problem. In the literature, few wavelets like daubechies db3 and haar have been used for de-noising medical images. Nevertheless, wavelet filters such as sym8, dB3, dB4, haar and Coif1 at certain level of soft and hard threshold functions have n...

Objective: The aim of this study was to correlate the Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) diagnosis breast lumps with clinical examination and imaging (ultrasound mammogram) assess reliability FNAC differentiate between benign malignant lesions in available histopathological specimen Materials Methods: This is a retrospective done pathology department BMSI from 1st January 30thJune, 2019 Res...

Kanker payudara merupakan kanker yang paling banyak terdiagnosa pada wanita diseluruh dunia. menempati urutan kedua tertinggi sebagai penyebab kematian wanita. Deteksi dini salah satunya dapat melalui prosedur mammografi akan menghasilkan citra mammogram. Penelitian ini upaya untuk melakukan deteksi dan segmentasi dengan menggunakan teknik pemrosesan terhadap objek dicurigai lesi mammogram meto...

The status of mammography screening experience and factors related to utilization were examined in six towns serviced by physician staffs at five hospitals. Data were collected via random digit dial telephone interview of a probability sample of 1184 women, aged 45-75 years. The results showed that 55% of the women reported ever having had a mammogram. Of those who had ever had a mammogram, 21%...

background: breast cancer is one of the most important diseases in females. malaysian women have not excluded. according to the malaysian oncology society [1], about 4% of women (who are 40 years old and above) have involved by breast cancer. masses and microcalcifications are two important signs for breast cancer diagnosis on mammography. according to our estimation, radiologists could diagnos...

Breast cancer is a serious problem and common form of cancer diagnosed in the woman. Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) is a tool which can assist the radiologists in the detection of abnormalities in medical images. In this study, a CAD system for breast cancer using X-ray mammography is presented with a high level of sensitivity by wavelet entropy features. Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) of a d...

BACKGROUND Screening mammography, although recommended every 2 years for women aged 50-69, is thought to be underused among select groups of Canadian women. METHODS We used data from the 1996/97 National Population Health Survey to describe current patterns in mammography use (including reasons for not having a mammogram within the 2 years before the survey and future screening intentions) in...

BACKGROUND Despite the mortality benefits of breast cancer screening, not all women receive regular mammography. Such factors as age, socioeconomic status, and physician recommendation have been associated with greater use of screening. However, we do not know whether having an abnormal mammogram affects future screening. OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of a false-positive mammogram on adhere...
