abstract = "A multiscale method for segmenting and enhancing lesions of
various sizes in mammograms is presented. The method uses two
stages. The first stage applies a multiscale automatic threshold
estimator based on histogram moments to segment the mammogram at
multilevels. The second stage converts the segmented image using
pseudo-colour mapping to produce a colour image. <P> An algorithm
is presented as well as experimental results. Mammograms are
digitalised using a table scanners with a transparency adapter and
the algorithm is implemented in Borland C++ 4.02 on a 486 PC. The
results are analogous to a breast map which provide an adequate
basis for radiological breast tissue differentiation and analysis
in digital mammography. Experimental results and judgments from
radiological experts are very encouraging.",
