Energy and Region based Detection and Segmentation of Breast Cancer Mammographic Images

Telemedicine is growing and there is an increased demand for faster image processing and transmitting diagnostic medical images. A region is a popular technique for image segmentation. We introduce a new approach that overcomes the close boundary initialization problem by reformulating the external energy term. We treat the contour as a mean curve of the probability density function. A widely used approach to image segmentation is to define...
