Abstract

In this paper, we designed a Computer-Aided-Diagnosis (CAD) system for lesion detection in breast MR images. The CAD process begins with analysis of MR images to detect the existence of lesion. If lesion exists, it is then coloured based on its type; benign, suspicious or malignant. Our CAD system enables better visualization of the lesions and improves accuracy as well as speed for breast cancer diagnosis.
