In recent years, use of both mammograms and ultrasound images is recommended in breast cancer screening. Computer-aided diagnosis system with a similar image retrieval has been proposed to support physicians in differential diagnosis of benign and malignant lesions. In this study, we investigated the similar image searching method by combination of mammograms and ultrasound images. We propose the psychophysical similarity measure that was determined by applying the multi-dimensional scaling to subjective similarities obtained by radiologists. As a result, the average precision in retrieving relevant benign and malignant images was 0.87. The result indicates the potential usefulness of similar image retrieval for diagnosis of breast cancer. |
