Lung Lobes and Nodules in Ct Images
The objective of this paper is to develop a segmentation system in order to assist the surgeons to remove the portion of lung for the treatment of certain illness such as lung cancer, and tumours. The fissures of lung lobes are not seen by naked eyes in low dose CT image, there is a proposal for automatic segmentation system. The lung lobes and nodules in CT image are segmented using two stage ...
متن کاملPotential Lung Nodules Identification for Characterization by Variable Multistep Threshold and Shape Indices from CT Images
Computed tomography (CT) is an important imaging modality. Physicians, surgeons, and oncologists prefer CT scan for diagnosis of lung cancer. However, some nodules are missed in CT scan. Computer aided diagnosis methods are useful for radiologists for detection of these nodules and early diagnosis of lung cancer. Early detection of malignant nodule is helpful for treatment. Computer aided diagn...
متن کاملAutomated Detection of Small-Size Pulmonary Nodules Based on Helical CT Images
A computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system to detect small-size (from 2 mm to around 10 mm) pulmonary nodules in helical CT scans is developed. This system uses different schemes to locate juxtapleural nodules and non-pleural nodules. For juxtapleural nodules, morphological closing, thresholding and labeling are performed to obtain volumetric nodule candidates; gray level and geometric features ar...
متن کاملAutomatic detection of small lung nodules on CT utilizing a local density maximum algorithm
Increasingly, computed tomography (CT) offers higher resolution and faster acquisition times. This has resulted in the opportunity to detect small lung nodules, which may represent lung cancers at earlier and potentially more curable stages. However, in the current clinical practice, hundreds of such thin-sectional CT images are generated for each patient and are evaluated by a radiologist in t...
