A pattern recognition method for automatic abnormal tissue detection and differentiation using contrast enhanced MRI images. The method includes the steps of acquiring a plurality of MRI breast image sets; aligning the plurality of MRI breast images with respect to spatial coordinates; differencing the plurality of MRI breast image sets with a reference MRI image set, producing a plurality of difference image sets; segmenting the plurality of difference image sets, producing a plurality of MRI breast images with segmented intensity pixels; applying dynamic system identification to the segmented intensity pixels, producing a plurality of dynamic system parameters; and classifying the plurality of system parameters augmented with other physical or non-physical factors into different classes.
