A study on mammography computer aided diagnosis system using machine learning methods

摘要

Early diagnosis is an important aspect of successful treatment for breast cancer. Mammogram is the most reliable imaging technique available. It is a challenging task for radiologists to detect the abnormalities in the mammograms. Computing helps the radiologists in diagnosing the abnormalities in the mammogram. Computer Aided Diagnosis System involves computerized biomedical image analysis to classify the mammography into benign or malign. In a decade of research work number of algorithms had been proposed to classify the image that employ data mining techniques, image processing methods, machine learning methods and pattern recognition. In this paper such algorithms in previous research work is studied and their performance is discussed.
