Tumor Prediction in Mammogram using Neural Network

Abstract

Detecting micro calcifications - early breast cancer indicators 2013; is visually tough while recognizing malignant tumors is a highly complicated issue. Digital mammography ensures early breast cancer detection through digital mammograms locating suspicious areas with benign/- malignant micro calcifications. Early detection is vital in treatment and survival of breast cancer as there are no sure ways to prevent it. This paper presents a method of tumor prediction based on extracting features from mammogram using Gabor filter with Discrete cosine transform and classify the features using Neural Network.
