Breast cancer is one of the deadliest diseases. It is affecting majority of women world wide. Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems can be used to help radiologists in order to examine the initial symptoms. One of the early symptoms is micro-calcifications. Detection of abnormalities is an essential part of treatment in the right direction. Along with detection of abnormalities, the classification of micro-calcification has a vital importance. Timely detection and classification of micro-calcification as malignant or benign can save a lot of women. We have used region based convolutional neural networks and obtained 92.7% mean average precision at training time while at testing time mAP is 89.2%.
