An Automated Segmentation Method for Lung Parenchyma Image Sequences Based on Fractal Geometry and Convex Hull Algorithm

Statistically solitary pulmonary nodules are about 6% to 17% of juxtapleural nodules. The accurate segmentation of lung parenchyma sequences of juxtapleural nodules is the basis of subsequent pulmonary nodule segmentation and detection. In order to solve the problem of incomplete segmentation of the...
