In this paper, we present a computer-assisted automatic diagnostic system for lung cancer
that detects nodule candidates at an early stage from helical CT images of the thorax. Our …

The authors describe a 3D image reconstruction method using X-ray rotational angiographic
system to realize 3D imaging of blood vessels. Several reconstruction methods utilize …

Purpose: Quantification of the CT appearance of non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is of
interest in a number of clinical and investigational applications. The purpose of this work is to …

A micro-CT system was developed using a 36M-pixel digital single-lens reflex camera as a
cost-effective mode for large human lung specimen imaging. Scientific grade cameras used …

The lung area has very complicated structure which consists of the bronchus, the pulmonary
artery, and the pulmonary vein. So it is difficult for even medical doctor to understand the …

Shape characterization of small pulmonary nodules plays a significant role in differential
diagnosis that discriminates malignant and benign nodules at early stages of pulmonary lesion …

Rationale and Objectives. An example-based assisting approach that supports decision
making in classifying pulmonary nodules in 3-dimensional (3D) thoracic computed tomography …

Purpose: Blood vessel (BV) information can be used to guide body organ segmentation on
computed tomography (CT) imaging. The proposed method uses abdominal BVs (ABVs) to …

The lung area has very complicated structure, so it is difficult to understand the connection
between tumor and blood vessels or bronchus. The authors describe a 3-D visualization …

Presents a method of measurement of blood vessel characteristics for disease detection based
on cone-beam CT images. The important objective here is to show how representation of …
