Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women and the second leading cause of cancer death in women after the lung cancer. The development of breast cancer involves several types of genetic code in order to promote the cancer. The subsequent steps in gene alterations with respect to tumor development are not clear, and the process is far less understood. Nowadays there are many techniques used for identification of breast cancer. This paper presents the image processing technique by using the MATLAB for identification of breast cancer using mammography images. It gives details about steps carried out while identifying the breast cancer and also provides the information about the various MATLAB functions used in those steps. This method helps the physician in breast cancer diagnosis and monitor the treatment process.
