Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGAUSSIAN MIXTURE MODEL BASED CLASSIFICATION OF MICROCALCIFICATION IN MAMMOGRAMS USING DYADIC WAVELET TRANSFORMSuman Mishra, Hariharan RanganathanBreast cancer is a serious health related issue for women in the world. Cancer detected at premature stages has a higher probability of being cured, whereas at advanced stages chances of survival are bleak. Screening programs aid in detecting potential breast cancer at early stages of the disease. Among the various screening programs, mammography is the proven standard for screening … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 5 Sep 2013 · 6,867 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSPECTRAL DOMAIN FEATURES FOR OVARIAN CANCER DATA ANALYSISAhmed Farag Seddik, Riham Amin Hassan, Mahmoud A. FakhreldeinThe early detection of cancer is crucial for successful treatment. Medical researchers have investigated a number of early-diagnosis techniques. Recently, they have discovered that some cancers affect the concentration of certain molecules in the blood, which allows early diagnosis by analyzing the blood mass spectrum. Researchers have developed several techniques for the analysis of the mass-spectrum curve analysis and used … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 9 Jul 2013 · 6,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMass Classification in Digital Mammograms based on Discrete Shearlet TransformJ. Amjath Ali, J. JanetThe most significant health problem in the world is breast cancer and early detection is the key to predict it. Mammography is the most reliable method to diagnose breast cancer at the earliest. The classification of the two most findings in the digital mammograms, micro calcifications and mass are valuable for early detection. Since, the appearance of the masses are … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 1 Jun 2013 · 6,549 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlant Pectin: A Potential Source for Cancer SuppressionSuryakant K. Niture, Lubna RefaiPectin is a branched polysaccharide present widely in a variety of fruits. It has been of high interest to cancer biologists due to its involvement in metal/carcinogen detoxification and its anti-carcinogenic properties. In particular, Citrus Pectin (CP) and Modified Citrus Pectin (MCP) have been shown to have a significant inhibitory role in cancer cell metastasis, invasion, angiogenesis and survival. The … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 18 Apr 2013 · 15,524 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA robust Approach to Classify Microcalcification in Digital Mammograms Using Contourlet Transform and Support Vector MachineJ. S. Leena Jasmine, S. Baskaran, A. GovardhanMammogram is the best available radiographic method to detect breast cancer in the early stage. However detecting a microcalcification clusters in the early stage is a tough task for the radiologist. Herein we present a novel approach for classifying microcalcification in digital mammograms using Nonsubsampled Contourlet Transform (NSCT) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). The classification of microcalcification is achieved by … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2013 · 7,856 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Approach in Malignancy Detection of Computer Aided DiagnosisS. Meenalosini, J. Janet, E. KannanProblem statement: Breast cancer is one of the most dangerous diseases that cause innumerable fatal in the female society. Early detection is the only way to reduce the mortality. Due to variety of factors sometimes manual reading of mammogram results in misdiagnosis. So that the diagnosis rate varies from 65-85%. Various computer aided detection techniques have been proposed for the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 15 May 2012 · 6,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWavelet Analysis and Orthogonal Moments based Classification of Microcalcification in Digital MammogramsN. V.S. Sree Rathna Lakshmi, C. ManoharanProblem statement: An important early sign of breast cancer is the clusters of micro calcifications in digital mammograms. To assist radiologists in the diagnosis of mammographic clusters a novel hybrid algorithm has been developed. Approach: A method, for detecting micro calcification in mammograms based on combined feature set with Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) was proposed. The diagonal matrix ‘S’ obtained … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 6 Aug 2011 · 6,558 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Vitro and In Vivo Anticancer Activity of Bacoside A from Whole Plant of Bacopa Monnieiri (Linn)N. S. Prakash, R. Sundaram, S. K. MitraProblem statement: Natural products have long been a fertile source of cure for cancer, which is projected to become the major cause of death in this century. Major classes of anticancer compounds include alkaloids, terpenoids, flavonoids and lignans. We have chosen terpenoids (bacosides) because terpenoids like taxol are currently being used in cancer chemotherapy. The anticancer activity of Bacoside A … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 7 Jun 2011 · 9,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Descriptive Framework for the Multidimensional Medical Data Mining and RepresentationVeeramalai Sankaradass, Kannan ArputharajProblem statement: Association rule mining with fuzzy logic was explored by research for effective datamining and classification. Approach: It was used to find all the rules existing in the transactional database that satisfy some minimum support and minimum confidence constraints. Results: In this study, we propose new rule mining technique using fuzzy logic for mining medical data in order to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 6,932 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInhibition of U6 snRNA Transcription by PTENStephanie Cabarcas, Kounosuke Watabe, Laura SchrammProblem statement: RNA polymerase III (RNA pol III) is responsible for transcribing many of the small structural RNA molecules involved in RNA processing and protein translation, thereby regulating the growth rate of a cell. RNA pol III transcribes both gene internal (tRNA) and gene external (U6 snRNA) promoters and proper initiation by RNA polymerase III requires the transcription initiation factor … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,551 accessesView PDFCite
