Abnormalities detection, abnormalities classification and content-based image retrieval (CBIR) are briefly reviewed. For the abnormalities detection, micro-calcification detection, mass detection and multi-view based detection are introduced. For the abnormalities classification, micro-calcification classification and mass classification are given.
