Tumor Detection System for Full-Digital Mammography

  • Chapter
Digital Mammography

Part of the book series: Computational Imaging and Vision ((CIVI,volume 13))

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.
