Characterization of the Interstitial Lung Diseases via Density-Based and Texture-Based Analysis of Computed Tomography Images of Lung Structure and Function1
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rationale and Objectives. Efforts to establish a quantitative approach to the computed tomography (CT)-based characterization of the lung parenchyma in interstitial lung disease (including emphysema) has been sought. The accuracy of these tools must be site independent. Multi-detector row CT has remained the gold standard for imaging the lung, and it provides the ability to image both lung structure as well as lung function.

Lung Texture Classification Using Locally-Oriented Riesz Components
We develop a texture analysis framework to assist radiologists in interpreting high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) images of the lungs of patients affected with interstitial lung diseases (ILD). Novel texture descriptors based on the Riesz transform are proposed to analyze lung texture without any assumption on prevailing scales and orientations. A global classification accuracy of 78.3%...
متن کاملMultiscale Lung Texture Signature Learning Using the Riesz Transform
Texture-based computerized analysis of high-resolution computed tomography images from patients with interstitial lung diseases is introduced to assist radiologists in image interpretation. The cornerstone of our approach is to learn lung texture signatures using a linear combination of N-th order Riesz templates at multiple scales. The weights of the linear combination are derived from one-ver...
متن کاملAutomated classification of pulmonary nodules through a retrospective analysis of conventional CT and two-phase PET images in patients undergoing biopsy
Objective(s): Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) examination is commonly used for the evaluation of pulmonary nodules since it provides both anatomical and functional information. However, given the dependence of this evaluation on physician’s subjective judgment, the results could be variable. The purpose of this study was to develop an automated scheme for the classific...
متن کاملNonspecific Interstitial pneumonia (NSIP)/ Overlap or Distinct Entity: A case report from the National Research Institute of Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (NRITLD)
Background: In many cases of ILD (interstitial lung disease), overlap diagnosis is considered. Here, a few cases with diagnosis of a variety of ILDs, where eventual open lung biopsy has been performed are selected. Reference will be made to reliable sources to show that NSIP can still be a variant of UIP (Usual interstitial pneumonia) with better treatment response and prognosis. Case Presenta...
متن کاملLung Tissue Analysis Using Isotropic Polyharmonic B–Spline Wavelets
A texture classification system is described, based on isotropic polyharmonic B–spline wavelets that identify lung tissue patterns from high–resolution computed tomography (HRCT) images of patients affected with interstitial lung diseases (ILD). Along with several desirable properties for isotropic texture analysis, the nonseparable transform with a quincunx subsambling scheme allows a mean of ...
