Özet

There have been many studies on computer-aided detection/diagnosis (CADe/CADx) systems that assist the
specialists in the evaluation of radiological images. Such systems increase the success rate of disease detection
and decrease the time spent for detection. In recent years, some of the academicals and commercial CADx
applications for mass detection/diagnosis on breast ultrasound images were developed as web applications. In
this study, a novel, high success-rate CADx web application with a novel classifier architecture was developed
and a specialist can track the patients without time and location restrictions with the help of internet connection.
Different from commercial applications, the developed application can also be used as an educational tool for
junior doctors or medical students to increase their practice in the field of radiology.
