Mammographic density classification
2014 Joint 7th International Conference on Soft Computing and Intelligent Systems (SCIS) and 15th International Symposium on Advanced Intelligent Systems (ISIS), 2014The purpose of this study is to develop mammographie density classification, which consists of three major steps. Firstly, the digitization of mammographie images module for images and data archiving. Secondly, a morphological segmentation algorithm is proposed to detect the segment of mammographie masses with salt-and-pepper noise.

Automatic Segmentation of Mammographic Density
Academic Radiology, 2001The purpose of this study was to evaluate a completely automatic method, based on Kittler's optimal threshold, to estimate breast density by using the mammographers' definition.Thirty-two normal, right-craniocaudal-view mammograms of women aged 37-86 years were digitized.

Mammographic density (MD) refers to the radiographic density of the breast on the mammogram. The risk of developing breast cancer is 4–5 times higher for women with the highest compared to lowest MD. The increased risk is related to biological mechanisms and the decreased sensitivity of mammography in women with dense breast (tumour masking effect). MD

Mammographic density in a multiethnic cohort
Menopause, 2007To compare mammographic density among premenopausal and early perimenopausal women from four racial/ethnic groups and to examine density and acculturation among Japanese and Chinese women.The study included 391 white, 60 African American, 171 Japanese, and 179 Chinese participants in the Study of Women's Health Across the Nation, a multisite study of ...

The quantitative analysis of mammographic densities
Physics in Medicine and Biology, 1994Quantitative classification of mammographic parenchyma based on radiological assessment has been shown to provide one of the strongest estimates of the risk of developing breast cancer. Existing classification schemes, however, are limited by coarse category scales.
