| Abstract(in English) | In breast cancer screening, a large amount of data is acquired from many patients. Therefore radiologists may overlook lesions under the reading overload. This paper proposes an automated mass detection technique to reduce the reading overload in whole-breast ultrasound images. First, we extract breast regions. Second, because masses tend to have lower density than mammary glands, we calculate pixel values relative to the neighboring pixels, and extract candidate mass regions. Finally, we extract features from candidate mass regions and remove false positives. The proposed method was applied to 59 clinical cases, and achieved 78.0% of sensitivity. |
