A FCM Based Approach for Automated Segmentation of Breast Masses in Mammograms

In this paper, we present an automated method to segment the breast masses in Mammograms that can be acquired in the routine clinical setting.Breast cancer is the most common deadly disease among the women.But early detection can save their life.Mass detection is an active research area for the past few years but till now no accurate method has been devised.In this paper an automated method to segment the breast masses has been proposed based on the Fuzzy C-Means Clustering method.The results show that this method can better assist as a tool in detection of breast cancer.
