Medical images are usually poorly illuminated and several edges are not visible accurately. This paper have used the morphological gradient (erosion-dilation computation) of the fuzzy mathematical morphology based on Hamacher t-norm and t-conorm, and comparison with classical morphological gradient. The results of evaluation shown clearly of the effectiveness of the fuzzy morphological approach in brain magnetic resonance imaging compared to classical morphological based on statistical image quality.

Computed Tomography (CT scan) which be directed into intracranial hole products a complete image of the brain. That image is visually examined by the expert radiologist for diagnosis of brain tumor. This study provides a computer aided method for calculating the area of the tumor with high accuracy is better than technique within CT scan device. This method determines the extracted the position and shape tumor based on morphological operations (dilation and erosion), enhancement filters and thresholding. Then, automatically calculate of tumor area for the area of interest.

Segmentation algorithms often lose the path of tumor boundaries in an attempt to determine the position of them. Active contours are used widely for segmentation as a high-level technology for boundary recognition. The main aim to create a clear contrast between the tumour and the normal breast region. In this study, two approaches to active contour are applied: snakes and level sets. The proposed methods were applied to all abnormal mammogram images taken from mini-MIAS database. The first approach showed a weakness in the segmentation of this type of image, while the other approach was able to segment all the mammogram's tumours. The Chan-Vese method was the most superior of all the active contour segmentation methods. The proposed models were tested in two ways, the first is statistical the best result was for the Chan-Vese method and it came as follows (90%,95% 98%, 97%, 97%) for Jaccard, Dice, PF-Score, Precision, and Sensitivity respectively. And the other is based on the segmented region's characteristics, Chan-Vese was able to accurately determine the location and shape of the tumor. The proposed Chan-Vese approach is appropriate in adopting computer assisted detection systems to predict tumor boundaries and locations in mammography for its reliability and superior performance over other algorithms.

The task of segmenting breast tumours in mammograms is very difficult, as its difficulty lies in the lack of contrast between the tumour and the surrounding breast tissue, especially when dealing with small tumours that are not clear boundaries and hidden under the tissues. As algorithms often lose an automatic path toward the boundaries of the tumour at try to determine the site of this type of tumour. The study aims to create a clear contrast between the tumour and the healthy breast area. For this purpose, we used a Gaussian filter as a pre-processing as it works to intensify the low-frequency components while reducing the high-frequency components as the breast structure is enhanced and noise suppression. Then, CLAHE was used to improve the contrast of the image, ...

Detect cancer is important at the initial stage, but only an expert dermatologist can detect which one is non-melanoma and melanoma. Computer-aided diagnosis (CADs) application to skin cancer is relatively understudied. The purpose of this paper is the automated detection of Melanoma via digital image processing. In this project, the algorithm consists of automatic ABCD (asymmetry, border irregularity, colour, and dermoscopic structure) rule of dermoscopy lesions images is implemented. Before that, we use hair removal as a pre-processing step which is based on morphological filter and thresholding. Finally, the lesions are classified as either melanoma or benign. The used dataset is containing 200 dermoscopic images, where 120 are benign lesions and 80 malignant melanomas. The proposed method shows an accuracy of 93.2%, 92.59% specificity, and 90.15% sensitivity.

The possibilities of survival can be raises when cancer detects earlier; therefore, the mortality reduction. The radiologist used mammograms to recognize breast tumors at an early level. Since the mammograms have little contrast, hence, it is unclear to the radiologist to distinguish small tumors. A computer-aided detection system contributes to explaining mammograms and helps the radiologist to indicate the appearance of breast mass and discriminate among normal and abnormal tissue. In this research, we introduce a histogram of oriented gradients as a method of feature extraction and identify mass regions in mammograms. The features extraction from this method classified by a support vector machine. To improve the diagnosis ability, contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization pre-processing system is utilized. Mini-MIAS database used to estimate this approach. The top accuracy, sensitivity, and ...

Based on the statistic reports, death-rate can be reduced by early detection of breast cancer. Breast cancer detection in early stages and lessen false positives in radiologist diagnosis can be achieved by combination Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) with mammography. In this work, we offer a feature extraction technique as a method to lessen false-positive in breast mass recognition. Distinguishing explicit breast masses and ordinary tissue is the objective we strive to achieve. The mini-MIAS database of mammograms was used in this paper. LBP is the method that was used to extract features from the ROI. Comprehensive detection of this method can be developed, by taking the ROI inside the ground truth, which is automatically identified in the mini-MIAS and classifier majority voting. Better sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy are observed with a logistic regression classifier.

Early detection of cancer helps to lower the death rate. Mammography scans determine breast tumors in the first stage. As the mammograms have slight contrast, thus, it is a blur to the radiologist to recognize micro growths. A computer-aided diagnostic system is a powerful tool for understanding mammograms. Also, the specialist helps determine the presence of the breast lesion and distinguish between the normal area and the mass. In this paper, the Gabor filter is presented as a key step in building a diagnostic system. It is considered a sufficient method to extract the features. That helps us to avoid tumor classification difficulties and false-positive reduction. The linear support vector machine technique is used in this system for results classification. To improve the results, adaptive histogram equalization pre-processing procedure is employed. Mini-MIAS database utilized to evaluate this me...

The early detection of cancer is one of the most key factors for possible cure. There are numerous methods of diagnosis amongst which: clinical examination, sonar and mammography, which is the best and more effective in detecting breast cancer. Detection of breast tumors is difficult because of the weak illumination in the image and the overlap between regions. Segmentation is one the crucial steps in locating the tumors, which is an important method of diagnosis of the computer. In this study, segmentation techniques are proposed based on; classic morphology and fuzzy morphology, and a comparison between them. The proposed methods were tested using the database of mini -MIAS, which contains 322 images. After the comparison the statistical results, it shows, the detection of tumor boundary with fuzzy morphology give the higher accuracy than the results in classic morphology.

We studied the motion of the pendulum analytical and derive the equation of motion when large amplitude using Mcleoran series then build a computational program to determine the value of period time for different amplitudes and tested for several values. The results show that the effect powers for series vanished almost at powers more than (4), make us an approximation of the series to fourth term, and also test the effect of large amplitude angles on the period time which showed a deviation clearly in the value (Tlr0) to the first power values. In addition, we got the mathematical exact equation of the simple pendulum motion at large amplitudes.
