3. Mammogram with microcalcifications

4. An example of using Hipocrates-mst for mammogram analysis

5. Microcalcifications detection

6. Image analysis

7. Microcalcification features
size
circularity
existence of dark center
level of brightness
irregularity regarding the shape
level of branching and
circumvolution

8. Final risk assessment
The final risk assessment for the selected cluster is obtained from a three characteristics feature space including the following parameters:
(i) the risk distribution of microcalcifications,
(ii) the number of microcalcifications at high risk,
(iii) the cluster polymorphism.

9. ‘Hippocrates-mst’ system risk percentage scale
Risk percentage scale from 0% to 100% :
0 % - 35 % risk declares definitely benign findings and discourages biopsy
35 % - 55 % risk declares benign state and a biopsy test is suggested
55 % -75 % risk indicates malignancy with doubts and a biopsy test is recommended
75 % % risk declares a definite malignancy and biopsy could not be avoided
