Anatomical object e.g. lungs, recognizing method for detecting lung cancer, involves selecting number of potential candidate objects from image data and classifying objects to produce anatomical objects with reduced wrong positive rate

摘要

The method involves selecting a number of potential candidate objects based on a three dimensional candidate generator from an image data, where the generator has a curvature tensor. The number of candidate objects is classified to produce a set of anatomical objects with a reduced wrong positive rate. The image data are seized from a data acquisition device (34) that has a computer tomography system. Independent claims are also included for the following: (A) a computer medium for recognition of anatomical object (B) a system for recognition of an anatomical object.
