Developing an effective computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system for
lung cancer is of great clinical importance and can significantly
increase the patient's chance for survival. For this reason, CAD
systems for lung cancer have been investigated in a large number of
research studies. A typical CAD system for lung cancer diagnosis is
composed of four main processing steps: segmentation of the lung
fields, detection of nodules inside the lung fields, segmentation
of the detected nodules, and diagnosis of the nodules as benign or
malignant. This book overviews the current state-of-the-art
techniques that have been developed to implement each of these CAD
processing steps. Overviews the latest state-of-the-art diagnostic
CAD systems for lung cancer imaging and diagnosis Offers detailed
coverage of 3D and 4D image segmentation Illustrates unique fully
automated detection systems coupled with 4D Computed Tomography
(CT) Written by authors who are world-class researchers in the
biomedical imaging sciences Includes extensive references at the
end of each chapter to enhance further study Ayman El-Baz is a
professor, university scholar, and chair of the Bioengineering
Department at the University of Louisville, Louisville, Kentucky.
He earned his bachelor's and master's degrees in electrical
engineering in 1997 and 2001, respectively. He earned his doctoral
degree in electrical engineering from the University of Louisville
in 2006. In 2009, he was named a Coulter Fellow for his
contributions to the field of biomedical translational research. He
has 17 years of hands-on experience in the fields of bio-imaging
modeling and noninvasive computer-assisted diagnosis systems. He
