Abstract |
Breast cancer is leading cause of women death. Mammogram is used to detect breast cancer in women. In this paper the methodology is based on Region Growing Algorithm to detect breast mass and classification. The proposed system deals with four steps. First step is enhancement of mammogram image using stochastic homomorphic filtering. Second step is image segmentation where the enhanced image segmented using local seed region growing algorithm. Third step is feature extraction using Canny Edge Detection. Finally, the fourth step is classification of mass as either benign or malignant using support vector machine. |
