A Novel Registration Approach for Mammograms Based on SIFT and Graph Transformation

Abstract:

Mammogram registration is an important step in the processing of automatic detection of breast cancer. It provides aid to better visualization correspondence on temporal pairs of mammograms. This paper presents a novel algorithm based on SIFT feature and Graph Transformation methods for mammogram registration. First, features are extracted from the mammogram images by scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) method. Second, we use graph transformation matching (GTM) approach to obtain more accurate image information. At last, we registered a pair of mammograms using Thin-Plate spline (TPS) interpolation based on corresponding points on the two breasts, and acquire the mammogram registration image. Performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated by three criterions. The experimental results show that our method is accurate and closely to the source images.
