Abstract

A significantly improved method to facilitate the display and analysis of temporal sequences of mammograms, by optimizing image registration and grayscales, has been developed. This involves a fully automatic nonlinear geometric transformation, which puts corresponding skin lines, nipples and chest walls in registration and locally corrects pixel values based on the Jacobian of the transformation. Linear regression is applied between pairs of corresponding pixels after registration, and the derived regression equation is used to equalize grayscales.
