Abstract

Given that the micro-calcification clusters in early breast cancer X-ray pictures are minimal and irregular with differentiated shapes and distributions as well as the unsatisfactorily low contrast ratio, micro-calcification clusters of small sizes and the unsatisfactorily low contrast ratio tend to be easily ignored or misdiagnosed by doctors. This paper applies the LVQ Neural Network to classify micro-calcification clusters as malignant or benign in digitized mammograms based on feature extraction of statistical methods. The result shows the method of LVQ Neural Network is simpler and effective.
