| Abstract: | This study presents a computer algorithm, which consists
of four main steps (image acquisition, image pre-processing, nodule candidate
detection, and feature extraction) for nodule detection in chest radiographs.
Algorithm is applied on small-cell type of lung cancer (SCLC) and
non-small-cell type of lung cancer (NSCLC) images. Total 50 images (25 from
each category) were used to estimate geometrical and texture features. Active
shape model (ASM) was used for lung field segmentation. Gray level
co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) was used to estimate texture features. |
