Breast cancer is one of the leading reason of death among women. Nevertheless, medications for this fatal disease are still away of ambitions. Patients (thought to have breast cancer) should go through several advanced medical diagnostic procedures like mammography, biopsy analysis, ultrasound imaging, etc. Mammography is one of the medical imaging techniques used for detecting breast cancer. However, its resulted images may not be clear enough or helpful for physician to diagnose each case correctly. This fact has pushed researchers towards developing effective ways to enhance images throughout using various enhancement algorithms. In this paper, a comparison amongst these applied algorithms was done to evaluate the optimum enhancement technique. A morphology enhancement, which is resulted from combining top-hat operation and bottom-hat operation, was used as a proposed enhancement algorithm. The proposed enhancement algorithm was compared to three other well-known enhancement algorithms, specifically histogram equalization, logarithmic transform, and gamma correction with different gamma values. Twenty-five mammographic images were taken from the mammography image analysis society (MIAS) database samples. The minimum entropy difference value (EDV) was used as metric to evaluate the best enhancement algorithm. Results has approved that the proposed enhancement algorithm gave the best-enhanced images in comparison to the aforementioned algorithms.
