Abstract

The detection of skin cancer in the earlier stage is very important and critical. In recent days, skin cancer is seen as one of the most Hazardous forms of the Cancers found in Humans. Skin cancer is found in various types such as Melanoma, Basal and Squamous cell Carcinoma among which Melanoma is the most unpredictable. The detection of Melanoma cancer in an early stage can be helpful to cure it. Computer vision can play an important role in Medical Image Diagnosis and it has been proved by many existing systems. In this paper, we present a computer-aided method for the detection of Melanoma Skin Cancer using Image processing tools.
