Breast cancer screening has reference to of asymptomatic, generally healthy women for breast cancer, identify those who should receive a follow up check. Early can detect non-invasive ductal carcinoma in situ (called "pre cancer"), which almost never forms lump and is non-detectible, except by mammography. This paper will describe the design preliminary evaluation this PNN/GRNN ensemble pre-screener, context possible pre-screening protocol, may, if required, include other data. The results show that using technique provides 20% AUC increase over average standalone PNN 10% best performing PNN.
