Abstract:

Each year, 182,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer and 43,300 die. One woman in eight either has or will develop breast cancer in her lifetime. If detected early, the five-year survival rate exceeds 95%.Mammography can detect very early breast tumors, when they are too small to be felt. In fact, most of the breast cancers detected by screening are at this very early stage, when they are relatively easy to cure. The responsibility of the physician in breast cancer screening involves the interpretation of images of the breast for the identification of potential abnormalities, and their categorization with respect to growth. Such images include mammograms, contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance images (MRI) and ultrasound images. We present a Computer Aided Detection system to suit the need of a of Computer Aided Detection (CAD) in cancer screening for civilizing image excellence and detecting abnormalities in a diversity of modalities associated with cancer screening that is, mammography in breast cancer. The objective is the development of an online automated process expert of cataloging suspicious regions, supplementing and humanizing the physician's ability to spot abnormalities.

Keywords: breast Cancer, Computer Aided Detection(CAD), Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI), Super Resolution, X-Ray CT.
