Nodules Detection Based on Morphological Operation

Abstract

The paper presents the lung nodules detection based on morphological operation. Lung Cancer is one of the most dangerous diseases in medical diagnosis. Lung Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) is a potential method to detect the lung disease, cancer and analysis the cancer progression. The paper follows two stages. Firstly, nodule segmentation based on gray scale thresholding. It is separate the lung diseases from lungs images. Secondly, apply morphological operation. It removes unwanted noise from segmented image. The experimental results shows the better segmentation and analysis of nodules in the CT images.
