Homogeneity와 Ranklets를 이용한 치밀 유방에서의 종괴(mass)형 암 검출

In this paper, we propose a new method for detection of mass-type breast cancer in dense mammogram. As the proposed method analyzes texture of the breast tissue using method by fusing Homogeneity and Ranklets, improve problem of traditional method. Homogeneity gives the measure of uniform density, and Rankleis determine orientation selective property at vertical, horizontal and diagonal in mass region. The proposed method is suitable to dense mammogram with tangled normal tissue and cancer tissue. SVM(Support Vector Machine) classifier is used for effective detection of mass-type breast cancer in dense mammogram.
