Segmentation is one of the latest directions of digital imaging development, presented by partial segments which are parts of the same image. The currently used algorithms are rare and far from ideal. Depending on the situation, algorithms behave differently, so it is almost impossible to single out a unique conclusion. This paper gives a proposal for new segmentation techniques with the help of Imaging Biomarkers for the digital image processing with auxiliary Hybrid edge detection algorithm and especially a defined threshold of detection. Matlab software is used for giving a particular conceptual design of a partial display of images and for correlating adequate numerical methods of digital processing. The study results confirm the quality of the proposed algorithm and position it for practical use in classification of BI-RADS breasts classified by density.
