DETERMINATION OF BREAST CANCER AREA FROM MAMMOGRAPHY IMAGES USING THRESHOLDING METHOD

Abstract

Calculation of breast cancer area by an image analysis on mammography using thresholding method has been done.The mammography images ware taken from three sides of projection which include oblique (mlo), lateral (ml) and cranial caudal (cc).The results achieved were expected to facilitate in calculating the area of breast cancer for the next stage examination.The thresholding method used was based on the pixel separation in different classes, depending on each grey levels of pixel.The area calculation has been performed by summing the number of pixels that build up the object in the image.The calculation results of the object’s wide obtained from three sides, i.e. mlo, ml, and cc, are 4.49 cm2, 3.03 cm2, and2.58 cm2, respectively.These values indicate that the image processing techniques developed can be implemented to calculate the area of breast cancer.
