Claim 0:
1. A breast image analysis system, comprising:
an image receiving unit which receives four mammogram images;
an image size adjusting unit which adjusts a size of the mammogram image received from the image receiving unit;
a preprocessing unit which performs preprocessing on the mammogram image adjusted by the image size adjusting unit;
a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based CNN learning unit which generates learning information by learning the image preprocessed by the preprocessing unit; and
a CNN inference unit which receives the learning information learned from the CNN learning unit and a mammogram image to be classified from the image receiving unit to diagnose a breast abnormality,
wherein the mammogram image to be classified which is received by the CNN inference unit has an image size which is adjusted by the size adjusting unit and the mammogram image is preprocessed by the preprocessing unit, and
wherein the image size adjusting unit changes an angle with respect to a mediolateral oblique view image and cuts only a breast side image with respect to a pectoral muscle parallel line which is parallel to a pectoral muscle line represented in the mediolateral oblique view image and has a predetermined interval toward a nipple direction from the pectoral muscle line to be adjusted in a form of a craniocaudal (CC) view.
