Objective Recent studies have shown that three-dimensional (3D) visualization of lung
cavities has distinct advantages over multiplanar computed tomographic (CT) images for …

目的高分辨率多层螺旋CT 是临床医生研究肺部解剖结构功能, 评估生理状态,
检测和诊断病变的主要影像学工具. 鉴于肺部各解剖结构间特殊的关联关系和图像成像缺陷 …

Modern multislice computed tomography (CT) scanners produce isotropic CT images with a
thickness of 0.6 mm. These CT images offer detailed information of lung cavities, which …

Lung lobe segmentation in computed tomography (CT) images can be regarded as
essential supporting information for the diagnosis and treatment of lung diseases, yet it is a …

Pulmonary fissures separate human lungs into five distinct regions called lobes. Detection of
fissure is essential for localization of the lobar distribution of lung diseases, surgical …

Analysis of pulmonary scans representative of a patient's pulmonary structure can be used
to classify a patient into one or more of a plurality of populations. The patient's scan can be …

Pulmonary fissures are important landmarks for automated recognition of lung anatomy and
need to be detected as a pre-processing step. We propose a derivative of stick (DoS) filter …

Medical image is the visual representation of anatomy or physiology of internal structures of
the body and it is useful for clinical analysis and medical intervention. Modern medical …

Automatic segmentation and detection of lungs and tumors in FDG PET-CT images is
potentially beneficial in the diagnosis and staging of patients with non-small cell lung cancer …

Accurate target delineation of CT image is a critical step in radiotherapy treatment planning.
This paper describes a novel strategy for automatic contour propagation, based on …
