Feature Extraction and Analysis of Breast Lesions in UltrasoundB mode and Elastography

S.Sasikala, B.kirthika, P.S. Dharsana

Elastography is a non-invasive method in which stiffness of soft tissues are used to detect and classify tumours. The ultrasound B mode and elastographic images were preprocessed and automatic thresholding is done which results in binary images. Segmentation is done by using level set method. The B mode features, elasticity features are computed. The texture features and strain and shape features are calculated for echographic elastographic and the combined image. Classification of above features using neural network is under implementation.
