Detection of Lung Cancer Disease using Machine Learning

Abstract

Cancer causes cell to split uncontrollably. Lung Cancer results in rapid cell growth and division of such infected cell, such growth of cells called tumor. Lung is the first organ where lung tumor begins and can spread to lymph nodes and so on. Early identification of lung cancer would facilitate in sparing a large no. of lives. If we compare death rates in any cancer then lung cancer has highest mortally rate. This article presents an automated web-based system for disease detection in lung using X-Ray images. To identify disease in lung in X-ray images, as it provides detailed picture and gives clear idea of lung in the body. For this project dataset of chest x-ray was taken from Kaggle. Using Mobile Net model we predicted the lung disease. Using this approach, we can early detect the disease present in lung which causes lung cancer
