Multi-view computer-assisted diagnosis

A method of detecting a mass in a human breast, the method comprising:

• obtaining ipsilateral mammographic views of the breast;
• for each image, performing CAD of the image to determine suspected masses depicted in the image;
• and
• combining measurements of the suspected masses in each image to determine whether a suspected abnormal region is a mass.

An apparatus of detecting an abnormal region in living tissue, the apparatus comprising:

• a mechanism constructed and adapted to obtain images from different views of the living tissue;
• a mechanism constructed and adapted to perform single-image CAD of each image to determine suspected abnormal regions depicted in the image;
• and
• a mechanism constructed and adapted to combine measurements of the suspected abnormal regions in each image to determine whether a suspected abnormal region is an abnormal region.
