Introduction

Breast cancer is a leading cause of death among women worldwide. Early and precise diagnosis is critical for effective treatment and improving patient outcomes. Potentialy improve diagnostic tools and assist healthcare professionals in decision-making.


Dataset Overview

The CBIS-DDSM (Curated Breast Imaging Subset of the Digital Database for Screening Mammography) is a large-scale dataset used for breast cancer diagnosis, particularly focusing on mammography images. It is available on Kaggle, and it provides images along with annotations that are essential for training and evaluating machine learning models for tasks such as tumor classification (benign vs. malignant) and lesion detection in breast tissue.

The CBIS-DDSM dataset is a curated subset of the Digital Database for Screening Mammography (DDSM). It was specifically curated for breast cancer detection using mammography images and contains both mammogram images and corresponding annotations.
