Automated Pulmonary Nodule Detection System in Computed Tomography Images: A Hierarchical Block Classification Approach

A computer-aided detection (CAD) system is helpful for radiologists to detect pulmonary nodules at an early stage. In this paper, we propose a novel pulmonary nodule detection method based on hierarchical block classification. The proposed CAD system consists of three steps. In the first step, input...
