Application of the LDM algorithm to identify small lung nodules on low-dose MSCT scans (original) (raw)

Medical Imaging 2004: Image Processing, 2004

Abstract

In this work, we present a computer-aided detection (CAD) algorithm for small lung nodules on low-dose MSCT images. With this technique, identification of potential lung nodules is carried out with a local density maximum (LDM) algorithm, followed by reduction of false positives from the nodule candidates using task-specific 2-D/3-D features along with a knowledge-based nodule inclusion/exclusion strategy. Twenty-eight MSCT scans
