Abstract—This paper is to develop a system for breast cancer detection with colorization to visualize and localize the region of cancerous lesion. With the designed system, radiologist can choose to either run a full scan or partial scan to diagnosis the breasts. This entire system can reduce the time required for analysis and enable more thorough examination for breasts screening. The locations of lesion are colored and exposed out of the MR images for better diagnosis and inspection of the lesion characteristics. The region of interest that is selected allows the system to plot a graph which illustrates transparent details about the lesion. The system in terms of sensitivity and specificity is able to outperform the current manual probing approach.

Index Terms—Image colorization, breast cancer MRI, breast cancer colorization, breast cancer detection.
