An Automatic Computer-Aided Detection Scheme for Pneumoconiosis on Digital Chest Radiographs.

This paper presents an automatic computer-aided detection scheme on digital chest radiographs to detect pneumoconiosis. Firstly, the lung fields are segmented from a digital chest X-ray image by using the active shape model method. Then, the lung fields are subdivided into six non-overlapping region...
