Abstract
Two novel threshold techniques are proposed for image segmentation which is a very critical task in any image processing. The two methods are based in scanning each image row by row and to find the proper threshold value. A modification of this method is developed to find the threshold value by average. The two methods are implemented on a mammogram and accordingly, a comparison between the two methods is carried out
