In this paper, we present a new approach to the segmentation and analysis of solid breast nodules in ultrasonography. We have applied computer vision techniques to segment the nodules and analyze a series of diagnostic criteria which can help discriminate malignant and benignant tumors. The segmentation is carried out in a semiautomatic way, whereas the analysis of the diagnostic criteria involves several computational methods. The techniques which we propose have provided quite satisfactory results and show the usefulness of image processing in the diagnosis through medical imaging.
