Abstract :
The paper describes the attempt of breast thermography processing applying with ITE, which can be used to obtain multilayer thermometry distribution pictures from original infrared (IR) image of women breasts. In the screening of breast diseases of women, especially breast cancer, we applied ITE to process the IR images. The validity of ITE is verified in the experiments.
