Chapter 6 Conclusions and Future Work
6.4 Future works
The work described in this thesis suggests several directions for future work.
The main goal of any CAD system is support a doctor in making the correct decision. The current system takes either clinical or biological datasets as input but not both. This is because there is no dataset found in the public databases that contains both types of examination for the same patient. Therefore, in future, we can evolve the framework by collecting a dataset containing both types of examination and integrating the decision of the clinical and biological subsystem in order to enhance the diagnostic accuracy of the framework.
As well as the ultrasound, mammography too is considered an important examination in the early detection of breast cancer. Both share some morphological features such as shape and margin. Therefore, we would suggest the inclusion of the new feature, CRD, in mammography based CAD systems in order to enhance their effectiveness in differentiating cancer from benign cases.
Microarray technology has been widely used for diagnosing several other diseases such as, leukaemia, lymphoma and ovarian cancers. We would suggest the use of the methodology developed in this study to identify biomarkers for enhancing the diagnostic accuracy of these diseases too.
Microarrays have been used not only for diagnosis but also for prognosis. This method could identify biological biomarkers to be utilized for stratification of cancer patients as well as to identify patients at higher risks that might require differential therapeutic interventions.
