Mammography is a significant screening test for early detection of breast cancer, which increases the patient’s chances of complete recovery. In this paper, a clustering method is presented for the detection of breast cancer tumor locations and areas. To implement the clustering method, we used the growth region approach. This method detects similar pixels nearby. To find the best initial point for detection, it is essential to remove human interaction in clustering. Therefore, in this paper, the FCM-GA algorithm is used to find the best point for starting growth. Their results are compared with the manual selection method and Gaussian Mixture Model method for verification. The classification is performed to diagnose breast cancer type in two primary datasets of MIAS and BI-RADS using features of GLCM and probabilistic neural network (PNN). Results of clustering show that the presented FCM-GA method outperforms other methods. Moreover, the accuracy of the clustering method for FCM-GA is 94%, as the best approach used in this paper. Furthermore, the result shows that the PNN methods have high accuracy and sensitivity with the MIAS dataset.

Early prediction of cancer type has become very crucial. Breast cancer is common to women and it leads to life threatening. Several imaging techniques have been suggested for timely detection and treatment of breast cancer. More research findings have been done to accurately detect the breast cancer. Automated whole breast ultrasound (AWBUS) is a new breast imaging technology that can render the entire breast anatomy in 3-D volume. The tissue layers in the breast are segmented and the type of lesion in the breast tissue can be identified which is essential for cancer detection. In this chapter, a u-net convolutional neural network architecture is used to implement the segmentation of breast tissues from AWBUS images into the different layers, that is, epidermis, subcutaneous, and muscular layer. The architecture was trained and tested with the AWBUS dataset images. The performance of the proposed scheme was based on accuracy, loss and the F1 score of the neural network that was calculated for each layer of the breast tissue.

AbstractBreast cancer is the most common cancer among women and it is one of the main causes of death for women worldwide. To attain an optimum medical treatment for breast cancer, an early breast cancer detection is crucial. This paper proposes a multistage feature selection method that extracts statistically significant features for breast cancer size detection using proposed data normalization techniques. Ultra-wideband (UWB) signals, controlled using microcontroller are transmitted via an antenna from one end of the breast phantom and are received on the other end. These ultra-wideband analogue signals are represented in both time and frequency domain. The preprocessed digital data is passed to the proposed multi-stage feature selection algorithm. This algorithm has four selection stages. It comprises of data normalization methods, feature extraction, data dimensional reduction and feature fusion. The output data is fused together to form the proposed datasets, namely, 8-HybridFeature, 9-HybridFeature and 10-HybridFeature datasets. The classification performance of these datasets is tested using the Support Vector Machine, Probabilistic Neural Network and Naïve Bayes classifiers for breast cancer size classification. The research findings indicate that the 8-HybridFeature dataset performs better in comparison to the other two datasets. For the 8-HybridFeature dataset, the Naïve Bayes classifier (91.98%) outperformed the Support Vector Machine (90.44%) and Probabilistic Neural Network (80.05%) classifiers in terms of classification accuracy. The finalized method is tested and visualized in the MATLAB based 2D and 3D environment.

Breast cancer is one of the main causes of cancer death worldwide, and early diagnostics significantly increases the chances of correct treatment and survival, but this process is tedious. The relevance and potential of automatic classification algorithms using Hematoxylin-Eosin stained histopathological images have already been demonstrated, but the reported results are still sub-optimal for clinical use. Deep learning-based computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) has been gaining popularity for analyzing histopathological images. Based on the predominant cancer type, the goal is to classify images into four categories of normal, benign, in situ carcinoma, and invasive carcinoma. The convolutional neural networks (CNN) is proposed to retrieve information at different scales, including both nuclei and overall tissue organization. This chapter utilizes several deep neural network architectures and gradient boosted trees classifier to classify the histology images among four classes. Hence, this approach has outperformed existing approaches in terms of accuracy and implementation complexity.

Introduction: In this paper, a method is presented to classify the breast cancer masses according to new geometric features. Methods: After obtaining digital breast mammogram images from the digital database for screening mammography (DDSM), image preprocessing was performed. Then, by using image processing methods, an algorithm was developed for automatic extracting of masses from other normal parts of the breast image. In this study, 19 final different features of each image were extracted to generate the feature vector for classifier input. The proposed method not only determined the boundary of masses but also classified the type of masses such as benign and malignant ones. The neural network classification methods such as the radial basis function (RBF), probabilistic neural network (PNN), and multi-layer perceptron (MLP) as well as the Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) fuzzy classification, the binary statistic classifier, and the k-nearest neighbors (KNN) clustering algorithm were used for the final decision of mass class. Results: The best results of the proposed method for accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity metrics were obtained 97%±4.36, 100%±0 and 96%±5.81, respectively for support vector machine (SVM) classifier. Conclusions: By comparing the results of the proposed method with the results of the other previous methods, the efficiency of the proposed algorithm was reported.
