Early detection of lung cancer is the major challenge for physicians to treat and control this deadly disease whose primary step is to detect pulmonary nodule from thoracic computed tomography (CT) images. In view of increasing the accuracy of the pulmonary nodule computer aided detection methodology, this paper proposes a novel pulmonary nodule de...

Lung cancer has Poddar, Triparna highest prevalence in cancer-related deaths due to its rapid progression and it is detected at advanced stages. The paper proposes a novel method for predicting the risk of being malignant of Mukherjee, Jhilam Nodule (PN), presence of which can be an indication of lung cancer, with the motive to reduce the number of...

Chest radiography is considered as one of the most important radiological tools in pulmonary disease diagnosis. Due to the generation of low contrast images of X-ray machines, the detection of the lesions is a difficult issue and prone to error for a radiologist. Hence, a contrast enhancement algorithm is an obvious choice to enhance the contrast o...

Lung cancer is considered as a leading cause of death throughout the globe. Manual interpretation of cancer detection is time consuming and thus increases the death rate. With the help of improvement in medical imaging technology, a computer-aided diagnostics system could be an aid to combat this disease. Automatic segmentation of a region of inter...

Cancer is one of the fatal diseases, posing threat to human life. Among different types of cancer, lung cancer can be considered as one of the most most deadly one. Lung nodules are small white spots that appear in lung parenchyma. Lung nodules are primarily of two types, solitary pulmonary nodules and juxtrapleural nodules. Solitary pulmonary nodu...

Scoliosis is a 3D deformity of the spine, which is characterised by both lateral curvature and vertebral rotation. Cobb angle measurement is the golden method for diagnosis of scoliosis. With the increasing trend of digital imaging-based diagnosis system, computerised Cobb angle measurement is gaining much popularity. In general, digital X-ray imag...
