Automatic Pectoral Muscle Region Segmentation in Mammograms Using Genetic Algorithm and Morphological Selection

In computer-aided diagnosis systems for breast mammography, the pectoral muscle region can easily cause a high false positive rate and misdiagnosis due to its similar texture and low contrast with breast parenchyma. Pectoral muscle region segmentation is a crucial pre-processing step to identify les...
