Development of a Multi-Feature Cad System for Mammography

  • Chapter

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

Abstract

Routine screening mammography for the early detection of breast cancer in women over the age of 50 is now widespread in many countries including Australia. The introduction of these screening programs has stimulated research into computer systems which may assist radiologists examining these mammogram images.
