Abstract
Mammogram is considered to be the most reliable modality for the screening of breast cancer, and screening programs using mammography has become popular for the detection of early breast cancer. Computer aided diagnosis (CAD) system for mammography has the possibility to be used as a second reader to increase the reliability of the mass screening.
