In detection of breast cancer using mammography, accurate diagnosis often depends on the visibility of small low contrast objects within the breast image. This is even more critical in the case of small tumor detection at early stage. Radiographic examination including mammography, have reduced the contrast and visibility of small objects. Due to the high X-ray penetration of the objects scattered radiation, and the limited capability of the film to develop maximum contrast over an extended range of exposure values. Density slicing method based on the interval setting of image histogram has been applied for the image enhancement and "quick classification". But for mammography it is also required to detect and identify the disease region clearly in order to decide a proper treatment. By using clustering method it was obtained some classes as training areas for the supervised classification and by selection of the operators of image enhancement the best boundaries of tissues had been detected. Finally by using the NGLDM (Neighboring Grey Level Dependence Matrix) method, the textural features of several diseases has also been extracted. From the experimental results that were obtained in this study, a simpler technique for accurate diagnostic has been yielded without increasing the dose of X-ray on patient or without any other psychological effects.

ABSTRACT
This study aims to obtain variations of the optimum exposure factors for pediatric examination on the using of computed radiography detectors. The magnitude of FOM (figure of merit) is used as a parameter of image quality optimization represented by the SDNR (signal difference to noise ratio) and the dose represented by the ESD (entrance surface dose). The representation of the phantom thickness of the patients varied in the age range of 0-15 years for the thoracic, abdominal and head anatomy. Image evaluation using in-house phantoms as test objects and image results processed using ImageJ software. This study also evaluates the MTF value and contrast consistency in the image as a consideration for determining FOM. The results showed a combination of kV values, mAs, and filters in each pediatric age range at maximum FOM values. For abdominal anatomy aged 0-1 years the optimum value is achieved at 48 kV, 5.6 mAs and 0.2 mmCu filters; ages 1-5 years at 50 kV, 4.5 mAs and 0.2 mmCu filters; ages 5-10 years at 53.5 kV, 9 mAs and 0.2 mmCu filters; and ages 10-15 years at 60 kV, 7.1 mAs and 0.2 mmCu filters. For the thoracic anatomy of 0-1 years the optimum value is achieved at 43 kV, 3.2 mAs and 0.1 mm Cu filter; ages 1-5 years at 43 kV, 4 mAs and 0.2 mmCu filters; ages 5-10 years at 46 kV, 8 mAs and 0.2 mmCu filters; and ages 10-15 years at 50 kV, 8 mAs and 0.2 mmCu filters. For head anatomy aged 0-1 years the optimum value is achieved at 44 kV, 2 mAs and 0.1 mm Cu filter; ages 1-5 years at 47 kV, 4.5 mAs and 0.2 mm Cu filters; 5-10 years old at 48 kV, 6.3 mAs and 0.2 mmCu filters; and ages 10-15 years at 48 kV, 9 mAs and 0.2 mmCu filters.

Teknik akuisisi scan spiral memperkenalkan istilah Pitch. Pitch yang besar mempengaruhi proses rekonstruksi karena interpolasi data menjadi lebih lebar sehingga dapat menurunkan resolusi citra. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan fantom toraks in house yang dibuat dan didesain berdasarkan pengukuran data citra CT Toraks 100 pasien laki-laki. Parameter eksposi yang digunakan 130 kVp, rotasi tabung 0,6 detik, perubahan arus tabung 70 mAs dan 100 mAs serta variasi pitch mulai dari 0.5, 0.8, 1, 1.5, 1.8 dan 2. Fantom terbagi menjadi 4 bagian. Fantom bagian A untuk evaluasi akurasi posisi dan kualitas citra pada selang berisi media kontras, bagian B untuk evaluasi kualitas citra lubang udara hole , bagian C untuk evaluasi mikrokalsifikasi dengan variasi ukuran mesh pada serbuk tulang dan hidroxyapatite, dan bagian D untuk evaluasi MTF. Scanning fantom A untuk evaluasi akurasi posisi selang antara ukuran di fantom dengan monitor menunjukkan deviasi < 4 berjumlah 408 data 84 di sisi kanan dan 417 data 86 di sisi kiri dari total 486 data. Evalusi kualitas citra pada fantom A, terdapat perbedaan ?SNR pada tiap slice dengan hubungan yang linier terhadap perubahan pitch, semakin besar pitch yang digunakan ?SNR akan semakin lebar. ?SNR paling lebar terdapat pada slice ke-1 dan ke-2, selanjutnya pada slice ke-3 sampai ke-9 ?SNR stabil dan cenderung menurun. Evaluasi fantom B menunjukkan hole titik I dan J yang berdiameter 0.9 mm dan 0.625 mm tidak dapat tervisualisasi pada seluruh slice. SNR yang didapat paling tinggi pada hole tengah titik H dengan diameter 2 mm. Sensitivitas Pesawat CT dapat mendeteksi serbuk tulang ukuran mesh 10 dan 30 tetapi tidak dapat memperlihatkan serbuk tulang ukuran mesh 50 yang tersebar merata di permukaan fantom, ditunjukkan dengan nilai SNR tertinggi pada pitch 0.8 sebesar 2.659 SNR. ......Acquisition technique in spiral scan introduce the term of Pitch. The big pitch could be influence for reconstruction process because interpolation will be wider, be affecting the spatial resolution. This study was performed by using in house thoracic phantom that made and designed based on image data measurement of CT Thorax of 100 men patient. Exposure Parameter which used was 130 kVp, tube rotation 0.6 second, tube current 70 mAs and 100 mAs, with pitch variation start from 0.5, 0.8, 1, 1.5, 1.8 and 2. Phantom was divided into 4 parts. Part A was used for evaluating the accuracy of position and image quality on a pipe that consist of contrast media, part B was used for evaluating image quality on hole, part C was used for evaluating micro calcification with various mesh size on bone material and hidroxyapatite, while part D was used for evaluating MTF. Phantom A scanning was performed for evaluating the accuracy of position between pipe in phantom and monitor showed deviation 4 with 408 number of data 84 on the right side and 417 data 86 on the left side from 486 all data. The result obtained for image evaluation, showed the different between delta SNR in every slice in phantom A with the pitch changing, used higher pitch becoming SNR wider. The widest SNR were occurred in the 1st and 2nd slice, furthermore in the 3rd until 9th slice SNR were stable and tend to decreased. Evaluation of phantom B showed that hole in point I and J which have diameter 0.9 mm and 0.625 mm could not visualized. The highest SNR was occurred in the middle hole point H with diameter 2 mm. The sensitivity of CT scanner is good enough to detect bone with the mesh size of 10 and 30 but not with the mesh size of 50 that spread in the phantom surface, this is shown with the highest SNR in the pitch 0.8 as 2.659 SNR.
