Design of the breast carcinoma cell bank system

We describe a cell bank construction which was designed by a content-based image retrieval system using SQL database and XML for breast carcinoma images. However, the conventional pathological images for storage, management and data sharing have been done by a manual handling. We attempted to find a solution for the occurred processing problems by constructing a computerized standard system and a large dataset for the breast carcinoma images. It is possible that the system could classify the images according to the categorized cancer, text retrieval- and content-based retrieval system color- and texture features were applied. The software was designed and developed by using Visual Basic and the database constructed by using SQL the extract the texture features from the images. That was then stored in XML for MPEG-7 based retrieval standard system.
