Computer-aided detection/diagnosis of breast cancer in mammography and ultrasound: a review.

Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer among women worldwide. Early detection of breast cancer can increase treatment options and patients' survivability. Mammography is the gold standard for breast imaging and cancer detection. However, due to some limitations of this modality such as...
