Evaluating geodesic active contours in microcalcifications segmentation on mammograms
Microcalcification segmentation method based on geodesic active contours. Method incorporates radiologists knowledge in its final stage. 86.9% of microcalcifications were adequately segmented. Performance satisfactory for microcalcifications larger than 460?m. Modest performance when segmenting microcalcifications smaller than 460?m.
