ABSTRACT:
An automated computerized scheme for detection and characterization of diffuse lung diseases on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) images including obtaining image data including pixels of an organ; segmenting the image data into organ image data and non-organ image data; extracting predetermined features from the organ image data to produce a set of image features; comparing the set of image features against a reference set of organ image features containing image data known to correspond to normal and abnormal conditions; and producing a comparison result.
