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

Approach: Data were collected during 2 months period using special form of questioner. The total number of studied sample was 60, which … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,803 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Recombinant Human Erythropoietin and Tamoxifen on Growth and Angiogenesis of Mammary Tumor in Sprague-Dawley RatA. K. Sairah, A. Rasedee, O. Sheikh et al.Problem statement: Erythropoietin receptor (EPOR) has been detected in breast cancer cells and speculated to be involved in cancer growth, viability and angiogenesis. This has risen suspicious that EPO administration may enhance the severity of cancer. Approach: This study was undertaken to determine the effects of rHuEPO, Tamoxifen and their combination on the growth and angiogenesis of mammary tumor. Female … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,804 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Technique to Detect the Region of Interests in Mammogram ImagesMoussa H. Abdallah, Ayman A. AbuBaker, Rami S. Qahwaji, Mohammed H. SalehProblem Statement: Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in women today after lung cancer and is the most common cancer among women. The development of efficient technique to early detect the region of microcalcifications mammogram images is a must. Approach: The method proposed in this paper is to enhance the Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) performance. This … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNa,K-ATPase α Subunit-like Immunoreactive Proteins in Human Body FluidsJeng-Hsiung F. PengNa,K-ATPase was recently considered a target for breast cancer treatment since its potent inhibitors ouabain and related digitalis compounds that were reported circulating in body fluids before, were found to possess potent anti-breast cancer activity. Based on this finding, it is hypothesized that Na,K-ATPase derivatives could be circulating in the body and potential candidate biomarkers for early disease detection.
