Abstract: Early cancer detection is a problem for many scietists.In order to avoid some unnecesarly
investigation, scientists search different methods to investigate the mammograpfic images
and improve medical diagnostic of breast cancer .Visual analysis is very often wrong.In this paper we studied two methods in order to differentiate some tisue characteristics: Fractal analysis and perimeter-Area.The projection of spatial distribution of the tumor is what we seen on a mammography,and we calculate Fractal Dimension of this projections.We find that malign tumors have tendencies to evoluate to selfsimilar structers.This bring new ipotesis about breast cancer dynamics and improve also improve the clinical diagnostic.
