Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Computational Imaging

Background:

  • Multispectral transmission imaging offers a low-cost, safe, and easy method for early breast cancer screening.
  • Accurate detection of tissue heterogeneity is crucial for diagnosing breast diseases.
  • Low contrast and unclear boundaries in transmission images hinder accurate recognition and segmentation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an improved clustering segmentation method for multispectral transmission images.
  • To enhance the detection and classification of heterogeneities in breast tissue.
  • To overcome limitations of low contrast and unclear boundaries in existing imaging techniques.

Main Methods:

  • Image preprocessing using frame accumulation to enhance signal-to-noise ratio.
  • Nonlinear image compression via the "terrace compression method" to reduce redundancy and improve edge information.
  • Application of a window function to eliminate background noise and its influence on clustering.
  • Transformation of processed multispectral images into multidimensional data for cluster analysis.

Main Results:

  • The proposed method effectively segmented and classified three types of heterogeneities in breast phantom images.
  • Segmentation Dice coefficients exceeded 0.84 for all heterogeneities.
  • The method demonstrated superior performance compared to K-means, K-means++, Mean-shift, and Gaussian Mixture clustering algorithms.
  • Significant improvements in segmentation and classification accuracy were observed.

Conclusions:

  • The developed "terrace compression method" and window transformation significantly improve clustering segmentation of multispectral transmission images.
  • This approach holds great potential for enhancing the accuracy and reliability of early breast cancer screening.
  • The method provides a robust solution for overcoming challenges associated with low contrast and unclear boundaries in medical imaging.
