Papsmear Image based Detection of Cervical Cancer
Mooramreddy Sreedevi, B. S. Usha, S. Sandya · 2012
In this paper, a newapproach is proposed for the early detection of cervical cancer using Papsmear images. Regular Papsmear screening is the most successful attempt of medical science and practice for the early detection of cervical cancer. Manual analysis of the cervical cells is time consuming, laborious and error prone. This paper presents an algorithm for classifying Cervical cells as normal or abnormal. It is tested on 80Papsmear images and the experimental results show that the algorithm is on par with the results obtained by earlier work and gives satisfactory results in terms of sensitivity (100%) and specificity (90%).
