Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common disease in women and it remains a leading cause of cancer deaths among women in many parts of the world. Mammography has become indispensable for early detection of breast cancer. However, interpretation of the resulting images requires sophisticated image enhancement algorithms that enhance visual interpretation and aid the radiologists in the interpretation task. MATLAB software presents several enhancement algorithms which can be used for mammogram enhancement. In this survey, several enhancement techniques for mammographic images are considered.
