Lung Nodule Retrieval System
نویسندگان
چکیده
Early detection and removal of pulmonary nodules significantly improves long term survival rates for patients with lung cancer. This paper provides the overview of different methods used in the retrieval system of lung nodules by a comprehensive review of existing literature. Firstly, the high level features of DICOM CT images are used for retrieval of filtered lung images from the database. The preprocessing step is used for separation of lungs fields on the filtered images. Linear Binary Pattern extracts the low level features from extracted lung areas to perform the segmentation. The technique of template matching further uses to retrieve the abnormal nodules from Lung data set.

Rapid Retrieval of Lung Nodule CT Images Based on Hashing and Pruning Methods
The similarity-based retrieval of lung nodule computed tomography (CT) images is an important task in the computer-aided diagnosis of lung lesions. It can provide similar clinical cases for physicians and help them make reliable clinical diagnostic decisions. However, when handling large-scale lung images with a general-purpose computer, traditional image retrieval methods may not be efficient....
متن کاملContent-Based Image Retrieval for Pulmonary Computed Tomography Nodule Images
Research studies have shown that advances in computed tomography (CT) technology allow better detection of pulmonary nodules by generating higher-resolution images. However, the new technology also generates many more individual transversal reconstructions, which as a result may affect the efficiency and accuracy of the radiologists interpreting these images. The goal of our research study is t...
متن کاملContent-based versus Semantic-based Retrieval:
Content based image retrieval is an active area of medical imaging research. One use of content based image retrieval (CBIR) is presentation of known, reference images similar to an unknown case. These comparison images may reduce the radiologist’s uncertainty in interpreting that case. It is, therefore, important to present radiologists with systems whose computed-similarity results correspond...
متن کاملDetection of Lung Nodule Using Content Based Medical Image Retrieval
Lung cancer is the most important cause of cancer death for both men and women. The early detection of cancer can be helpful in curing the disease completely. So the requirement of techniques to detect the occurrence of cancer nodule in early stage is increasing. There are different technique exists but none of those provide better accuracy of detection. This provides content based medical imag...
