In this article, a computer aided diagnostic system for BI-RADS classification of breast cancer is proposed. The approach involves image processing capabilities to extract features from tumors in mammography and image mining to classify them as BI-RADS 2, BI-RADS 3, BI-RADS 4C or BI-RADS 5. Images from the BCDR repository were used for the experiments. The results showed the efficacy of the proposed method, which classified tumors with considerable accuracy in four BI-RADS categories.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
