A detailed research method on various lung cancer detection methods

Abstract

Early diagnosis and detection of carcinomas can be identified using image processing techniques primarily in the case of lung carcinoma detection. Detection of these tumors in early stage is a herculean task. Computed Tomography (CT) scan images is classified into four stages – Image enhancement and Segmentation, Feature Extraction and Classification. The main objective of this paper is to explain about various methods used for lung carcinoma detection using CT scan images.
