Correlation of emphysema score with perceived malignancy of pulmonary nodules: a multi-observer study using the LIDC-IDRI CT lung database
TL;DR: Despite the emphysema being a known risk factor, there has not been any impact on the readers' malignancy rating of nodules found in a patient with higher emphySEma score and there has also not found any correlation between the number of expert-detected nodules in a patients and his emphySema score.

Cardiopulmonary Screening with Feedback From Analysis to Acquisition
TL;DR: In this article, a medical screening workflow is performed using a computer-aided lesion detection process performed as a background process during the at least one medical diagnosis operation, which is performed while the patient remains on the patient support using the computed tomography imaging scanner configured with the determined imaging parameters.

Image processing device and method
Rafael Wiemker,Tobias Klinder +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an image processing device for detecting line structures in an image data set is presented. But the device comprises a model definition unit (12) for defining a line model of a line structure to be detected, said line model comprising a number of voxels, a calculation unit (14) for calculating, per voxel of interest, several correlation values of a correlation between the line model and an image area around it, wherein each correlation value is calculated, and a determining unit (15) for determining the maximum correlation value from calculated correlation values and the corresponding

Computer-aided identification of a tissue of interest
TL;DR: In this paper, a method is proposed to determine a change in a volume of a tissue of interest located in at least two data sets between the at least 2 data sets, where the first and second times are different.
Patent
Computer-aided detection (cad) of a disease
TL;DR: In this article, a method for performing computer-aided detection (CAD) of a disease, e.g. lung tumours, on a medical image data set (20) from a imaging modality, such as MRI or CT, is presented.
