| Abstract | (in Japanese) | (See Japanese page) |
| (in English) | Radiologists can fail to detect approximately 30% of lung nodules on chest radiograph. Therefore, in order to assist radiologists’ image interpretation, computer- aided diagnosis (CAD) schemes which indicate the potential locations of nodules have been developed. This paper proposes an automated detection method of nodules based on Hessian filter bank with which various sizes of nodules are enhanced and the majority of background normal structures are suppressed. Our method was evaluated by use of standard digital image database created by the Japanese Society of Radiological technology. The candidates identified by thresholding of output values in the Hessian Filter Bank indicated that the sensitivity for the detection of nodule was 75 % with 30 false positives per image. In addition, combining output values of our method, adaptive ring filter, and difference-image technique improved the detection accuracy. Therefore, our method would be useful for the detection of lung nodules on chest radiograph. | |
