Breast cancer is still a crucial public health problem worldwide, especially among women. Early diagnosis and treatment can be provided to patients with regular mammography. The BI-RADS system, which is a standard approach used when interpreting mammography results, is widely used worldwide. The number of datasets classified according to the BI-RADS system is mostly limited. Based on this shortcoming, in this study, we introduce a new benchmark dataset, "TR-BI-RADS", for mammogram classification based on BI-RADS standardization. A convolution neural network (CNN) is evaluated on this dataset. In addition to the newly defined (TR-BI-RADS) dataset, experiments are also carried out on the other dataset (INbreast Dataset), available in the literature and consists of BI-RADS categories. We believe that the TR-BI-RADS dataset will be beneficial for detecting breast cancer in the future studies.
