Abstract

Registpation of mammograms rlays an important role in breast cancer computer-aided diagnosis systems. Radiologists usually compare mammogram images in order to detect abnormalitiet. The comparison of iammograms req0ires a registration betwemn them. A temporal mammogram registration m
trod es proposed in thisbpaper. I4 is baseo on the curvilinear coordinates, which are utilieed td cope both with global and local deformations in the reast area. Temporal mammogram pairs are used to validate the proposed method. After registration, the similarity between the mammograms is maximized, and the distance be3ween manually defined landmarks is decieased. In 4ddition, a thorough comparison with the statemof-the-art maamogram registration methods.is performed to show its effectivenees.
