Lung nodules refer to a range of lung abnormalities the detection of which can facilitate early
treatment for lung patients. Lung nodules can be detected by radiologists through examining …

Numerous publications and commercial systems are available that deal with automatic
detection of pulmonary nodules in thoracic computed tomography scans, but a comparative …

Computer-aided detection (CAD) can help radiologists to detect pulmonary nodules at an
early stage. In pulmonary nodule CAD systems, feature extraction is very important for …

An effective automated pulmonary nodule detection system can assist radiologists in
detecting lung abnormalities at an early stage. In this paper, we propose a novel pulmonary …

False positive reduction plays a key role in computer-aided detection systems for pulmonary
nodule detection in computed tomography (CT) scans. However, this remains a challenge …

Lung cancer is a disease with significant prevalence in several countries around the world.
Its difficult treatment and rapid progression make the mortality rates among people affected …

Computer-aided detection (CAD) technology has been developed and demonstrated its
potential to assist radiologists in detecting pulmonary nodules especially at an early stage …

Multislice computed tomography (MSCT) is a valuable tool for lung cancer detection, thanks
to its ability to identify noncalcified nodules of small size (from about 3 mm). Due to the large …

Lung cancer is the deadliest cancer worldwide. It has been shown that early detection using
low-dose computer tomography (LDCT) scans can reduce deaths caused by this disease …

In this paper, a attempt has been made to summarize some of the information about CAD
and CADx for the purpose of early detection and diagnosis of lung cancer. Computer Aided …
