Breast Cancer Diagnosis Using Neuro-CBR Approach
Breast cancer has become the number one cause of cancer deaths amongst women. Once a breast cancer is detected, it can be classified a benign (not cancerous tissue) or malignant (cancerous tissue). However, it is very difficult to distinguish benign from one that is malignant due to its variability...

Breast cancer has become the number one cause of cancer deaths amongst women. Once a breast cancer is detected, it can be classified a benign (not cancerous tissue) or malignant (cancerous tissue).
