ABSTRACT

Objective To accelerate retrieve of mammogram database by using improved M-tree index. Methods M-tree index was analyzed in the reliability and effectiveness for indexing mammogram database.An algorithm called "Slim-down" was employed in design to minimize possible overlaps. Results The improved M-tree index enhanced the efficiency of retrieving mammogram database 25 times than traditional way. Conclusion The efficiency of retrieving mammogram database by using improved M-tree was accelerated remarkably.
