Abstract

A Study on Computer Assisted Diagnosis (CAD) system extract ing lung cancer part from Digital X-ray Computerized Tomography(CT) image is discussed in this paper. It is very crucial to segment the image of lung into the three organ area such as inside, outside and the hilum so that the variant image processing algorithm can be applied an each area respectively. In this paper, the efficient algorithm extracting lung cancer part is proposed with characterizing lung hilum part and its associated vessel patterns.
