Abstract

In this paper, we present an efficient algorithm to detect microcalcifications ROI (Regions of Interest) in digital mammograms using Linear filters. To efficiently detect microcalcifications ROI, we used three sequential processes; preprocessing for breast area detection, modified multilevel thresholding, ROI selection using mean filter and linear filters.
