Abstract

This paper discusses the application of statistical pattern recognition techniques to problems in diagnostic ultrasound. Using our own system as an example, we describe the concepts and specific methods that we have applied to a problem involving the computer-aided classification of breast tissue in vivo. Topics include feature generation, feature selection and classification, as well as a method which estimates the probability of error on classifying future data. An accompanying paper applies these methods to the classification of backscattered RF signals from normal and diseased breast tissue.
