Segmentation of breast MR images using a generalised 2D mathematical model with inflation and deflation forces of active contours

•Inflation and deflation forces of active contours for breast segmentation.•We developed 2D mathematical model for breast shape estimation.•Consistent results across wide range of parameters values. In medical computer aided diagnosis systems, image segmentation is one of the major pre-processing st...
