Abstract
The purpose with our work is to suggest a model for computer aided mammographic screening. The model is adapted so as to correspond to clinical routines in patient management within the screening process. The suggested system and architecture integrates analysis methods that apply respectively to non mammographie and mammographie data. Note however that we take a top down approach as compared to developing a screening model based on independently developed particular methods. In this way the domain experts and patients are continuously in focus.
