A gradient is calculated for a pixel image representing a cancer area, the gradient having magnitude and direction. Local extrema of the gradients are identified, remaining pixels are zeroed. Significant gradients among the local extrema are identified, based on thresholds obtained through training. Probability distributions are calculated for the local extrema magnitudes and the significant gradient magnitudes, to form a feature vector. The feature vector is classified using a Maximum Likelihood Estimate classifier constructed from large training sets.
