Claim 3:
4. A breast image analysis method, comprising:
(a) a step of receiving four mammogram images;
(b) a step of adjusting sizes of the received mammogram images;
(c) a step of preprocessing the adjusted mammogram images;
(d) a step of generating learning information by learning the preprocessed mammogram images based on a convolutional neural network (CNN);
(e) a step of receiving a mammogram image to be classified to classify whether a breast disease is present; and
(f) a step of receiving the learning information learned based on the convolutional neural network (CNN) and the mammogram image to be classified to diagnose a breast abnormality,
wherein in the step (b) of adjusting sizes of the received mammogram images, an angle with respect to a mediolateral oblique view image is changed and only a breast side image is cut 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.
