A New Computer-Aided Detection System for Pulmonary Nodule in CT Scan Images of Cancerous Patients

Introduction: In the lung cancers, a computer-aided detection system that is capable of detecting very small glands in high volume of CT images is very useful.This study provided a novelsystem for detection of pulmonary nodules in CT image. Methods: In a case-control study, CT scans of the chest of 20 patients referred to Yazd Social Security Hospital were examined. In the two-dimensional and ...

Computer Aided Detection and Recognition of Lesions in Ultrasound Breast Images

The authors extend their previous work on Ultrasound (US) image lesion detection and segmentation, to classification, proposing a complete end-to-end solution for automatic Ultrasound Computer Aided Detection (US CAD). Carried out is a comprehensive analysis to determine the best classifier-feature set combination that works optimally in US imaging. In particular the use of nineteen features ca...

Rapid image stitching and computer-aided detection for multipass automated breast ultrasound.

PURPOSE Breast ultrasound (US) is recently becoming more and more popular for detecting breast lesions. However, screening results in hundreds of US images for each subject. This magnitude of images can lead to fatigue in radiologist, causing failure in the detection of lesions of a subtle nature. In this study, an image stitching technique is proposed for combining multipass images of the whol...
