The Women breast cancer is the most critical cancer that are found in women. Its the second important cause of death in the world. Breast cancer has been ranked number one cancer in Indian females with rates occurrence of 25.8 per 1,00,000 females and death rate 12.7 among 1,00,000. Generally breast cancer is a malignant tumor that begins in the cells of the breast and eventually it spreads to the surrounding tissues. Early detection and diagnosis can reduce the mortality rate. Radiologist misdiagnosis the disease due to technical issues such as imaging quality and human error. Radiologists can improve the performance of Computer Aided Detection/Diagnosis (CAD) systems to finding and discriminating between the normal and abnormal tissues. Breast cancer diagnosis can applied are applied recent CAD systems on imaging modalities such as mammogram, ultrasound, MRI and biopsy histopathological images. CAD system have four stages for diagnosis which are pre-processing, segmentation, Feature Extraction and Classification. CAD system are developed to reduce the time taken to diagnose the breast cancer and reduce the death rate. This paper focus on the survey of CAD system to detect women breast cancer disease from the digital mammographic images to achieve high accuracy and low computational cost.

This paper aims to review the previously developed Computer-aided detection (CAD) systems for mammogram screening because increasing death rate in women due to breast cancer is a global medical issue and it can be controlled only by early detection with regular screening. Till now mammography is the widely used breast imaging modality. CAD systems have been adopted by the radiologists to increase the accuracy of the breast cancer diagnosis by avoiding human errors and experience related issues. This study reveals that in spite of the higher accuracy obtained by the earlier proposed CAD systems for breast cancer diagnosis, they are not fully automated. Moreover, the false-positive mammogram screening cases are high in number and over-diagnosis of breast cancer exposes a patient towards harmful overtreatment for which a huge amount of money is being wasted. In addition, it is also reported that the mammogram screening result with and without CAD systems does not have noticeable difference, whereas the undetected cancer cases by CAD system are increasing. Thus, future research is required to improve the performance of CAD system for mammogram screening and make it completely automated.
