The early detection of breast cancer is of the outmost importance in order to increase survival rates. Mammography is considered as an effective tool to detect breast cancer, but due to the complexity of breast tissue texture and the observer variability effect, misdiagnosis of breast cancer frequently occurs. This research develops a simple Computer-aided detection (CAD) system in order to improve the accuracy and efficiency of mammogram interpretation. The first step of the proposed al...
Drug delivery system is the method or process of introducing therapeutic substances into a body and improves efficiency and safety by controlling the rate, time and place of release of drugs in the body. In the past, the delivery of the drug faced many problems such as failure to reach the appropriate amount of specific cells. The drug delivery system using nanotechnology has limited or reduced these problems; despite some of the side effect problems of using this technology, such as th...
