Ct Image

Thoracic computed tomography (CT) technology has been used for lung cancer screening in high-risk populations, and this technique is highly effective in the identification of early lung cancer. With the rapid development of intelligent image analysis in the field of medical science and technology, many researchers have proposed computer-aided automatic diagnosis methods for facilitating medical experts in detecting lung nodules. This paper proposes an advanced clinical decision-support system for analyzing chest CT images of lung disease. Three advanced methods are utilized in the proposed system: the three-stage automated segmentation method (TSASM), the discrete wavelet packets transform (DWPT) with singular value decomposition (SVD), and the algorithms of the rough set theory, which comprise a classification-based method. Two collected medical CT image datasets were prepared to evaluate the proposed system. The CT image datasets were labeled (nodule, non-nodule, or inflammation) by experienced radiologists from a regional teaching hospital. According to the results, the proposed system outperforms other classification methods (trees, naïve Bayes, multilayer perception, and sequential minimal optimization) in terms of classification accuracy and can be employed as a clinical decision-support system for diagnosing lung disease.

Morphologic Criterion

Increased nuclear size, resulting in an increase in the relative proportion of nuclear to cytoplasmic sizes, is an important morphologic criterion for the evaluation of neoplastic and pre-neoplastic cells. This paper describes investigations into the suitability of automated image analysis for quantitating changes in nuclear and cytoplasmic cross-sectional areas in exfoliated cells from tracheas treated with carcinogen.Neoplastic and pre-neoplastic lesions were induced in the tracheas of Syrian hamsters with the carcinogen N-methyl-N-nitrosourea. Cytology samples were collected intra-tracheally with a specially designed catheter (1) and stained by a modified Papanicolaou technique. Three cytology specimens were selected from animals with normal tracheas, 3 from animals with dysplastic changes, and 3 from animals with epidermoid carcinoma. One hundred randomly selected cells on each slide were analyzed with a Bausch and Lomb Pattern Analysis System automated image analyzer.

Comprehensive Study

In our initial publication on this subject1) we reported results demonstrating that contrast is the most important factor in producing the high image quality required for reliable image analysis. We also listed the factors which enhance contrast in order of the experimentally determined magnitude of their effect. The two most powerful factors affecting image contrast attainable with sheet film are beam intensity and KV. At that time we had only qualitative evidence for the ranking of enhancing factors. Later we carried out the densitometric measurements which led to the results outlined below.Meaningful evaluations of the cause-effect relationships among the considerable number of variables in preparing EM negatives depend on doing things in a systematic way, varying only one parameter at a time. Unless otherwise noted, we adhered to the following procedure evolved during our comprehensive study:Philips EM-300; 30μ objective aperature; magnification 7000- 12000X, exposure time 1 second, anti-contamination device operating.

Today, in image analysis the broadest possible rationalization and economization have become desirable. Basically, there are two approaches for image analysis: The image analysis through the so-called scanning methods which are usually performed without the human eye and the systems of optical semiautomatic analysis completely relying on the human eye.The new MOP AM 01 opto-manual system (fig.) represents one of the very promising approaches in this field. The instrument consists of an electronic counting and storing unit, which incorporates a microprocessor and a keyboard for choice of measuring parameters, well designed for easy use.Using the MOP AM 01 there are three possibilities of image analysis:the manual point counting,the opto-manual point counting andthe measurement of absolute areas and/or length (size distribution analysis included).To determine a point density for the calculation of the corresponding volume density the intercepts lying within the structure are scanned with the light pen.
