摘要
A method to determine whether a candidate abnormality in a medical digital image is an actual abnormality, a system which implements the method, and a computer readable medium which stores program steps to implement the method, wherein the method includes obtaining a medical digital image including a candidate abnormality; obtaining plural first templates and plural second templates respectively corresponding to predetermined abnormalities and predetermined non-abnormalities; comparing the candidate abnormality with the obtained first and second templates to derive cross-correlation values between the candidate abnormality and each of the obtained first and second templates; determining the largest cross-correlation value derived in the comparing step and whether the largest cross-correlation value is produced by comparing the candidate abnormality with the first templates or with the second templates; and determining the candidate abnormality to be an actual abnormality when the largest cross-correlation value is produced by comparing the candidate abnormality with the first templates and determining the candidate abnormality to be a non-abnormality when the largest cross-correlation value is produced by comparing the candidate abnormality with the second templates. An actual abnormality is similarly classified as malignant or benign based on further cross-correlation values obtained by comparisons with additional templates corresponding to malignant and benign abnormalities.
