A CAD System for the Early Detection of Lung Nodules Using Computed Tomography Scan Images

<p>In this paper,  a computer-aided detection system is developed to detect lung nodules at an early stage using Computed Tomography (CT) scan images where lung nodules are one of the most important indicators to predict lung cancer. The developed system consists of four stages. First, the raw...
