2、factor in breast cancer treatment and consequently the survival rate. Digital mammogram is considered to be the most reliable method of early detection of breast cancer. As its visual clues ar

3、e subtle and varied in appearance, microcalcification detection and diagnosis is a challenging work for specialists. The computer aided diagnosis systems have been developed to aid radiologists in

4、 microcalcification detection and diagnosis. Currently, the performances reported in the literature are better for microcalcification detection than diagnosis. And the diagnosis results can’ t meet

5、 the clinical needs. Wavelet transform have been proved to be effective in classification of benign and malignant microcalcification. Little attention is paid to the selection of wavelet basis an

7、ssification results. In this paper, we make a research on characteristics of wavelet basis and its effect on feature extraction. And we adopt the scalar wavelets, multi- wavelets, directional- wav

8、elets and dual- tree complex wavelets to extract the muti- level information in mammogram. Two effective feature sets are proposed for feature extraction. An aided- diagnosis algorithm based on wavelet, c
