Development of an interactive GUI using MATLAB for the detection of type and stage of Breast Tumor

Poulmi Banerjee, Satadal Saha

Breast cancer is described as one of the most common types of cancer which has been diagnosed mainly in women. When compared in the ratio of male to female, it has been duly found that the prone of having breast cancer is more in females than males. Breast lumps are classified mainly into two groups namely: cancerous and non-cancerous. When we say that the lump in the breast is cancerous, it means that it can spread via lobules, ducts, areola, stroma to various organs of the body. On the other hand, non-cancerous breast lumps are less harmful but it should be monitored under proper diagnosis to avoid it being transformed to cancerous lump. To diagnose these breast lumps the method of mammogram, ultrasonic images and MRI images are undertaken. Also, for better diagnosis sometimes doctors recommend for biopsy and any unforeseen anomalies occurring there may give rise to inaccurate test report. To avoid these discrepancies, processing the mammogram images is considered to be one of the most reliable methods. In the proposed method MATLAB GUI is developed and some sample images of breast lumps are placed accordingly in the respective axes. With the help of sliders the actual breast lump image is compared with the already stored breast lump sample images and then accordingly the history of the breast lumps is generated in real time in the form of test report.
