Authors
Abstract
Breast Cancer Diagnosis and Prognosis are two medical applications pose a great challenge to the researchers. The use of machine learning and data mining techniques has revolutionized the whole process of breast cancer Diagnosis and Prognosis. Breast Cancer Diagnosis distinguishes benign from malignant breast lumps and Breast Cancer Prognosis predict s when Breast Cancer is likely to recur in patients that have had their cancers excised. Thus, these two problems are mainly in the scope of the classification problems. This study paper summarizes various review and technical articles on breast cancer dia gnosis and prognosis. In this paper we present an overview of the current research being carried out using the data mining techniques to enhance the breast cancer diagnosis and prognosis.
