Use of fractals in determining the malignancy degree of lung nodules

IntroductionA Computer-Assisted Detection (CAD) System for classification into malignant-benign classes using CT images is proposed.MethodsTwo methods that use the fractal dimension (FD) as a measure of the lung nodule contour irregularities (Box counting and Power spectrum) were implemented. The LI...
