Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In this paper, we introduce an implementation of plug-ins on PLUTO. These plug-ins discriminate inflammatory nodules from other types of nodules in chest CT images. PLUTO is a common platform for computer-aided-diagnosis systems on Microsoft Windows series and it is easy to add new functions as plug-ins. We coded two plug-ins; feature extraction plug-in and SVM learning/classifying plug-in. Using these plug-ins, it became easy to extract features to discriminate inflammatory nodules from other types of nodules and to change parameters for feature extraction and SVM learning/classifying with a GUI interface. The accuracy of the classifying result is 100% with 78 solid nodules which contains 43 inflammatory nodules and 35 other type of nodules.
