    摘要: A method for detecting polyp candidates in tagged stool or non-tagged stool images without performing stool subtraction, includes: applying a filter to locations in image data of a colon including tagged or non-tagged stool to generate a response image based on a gradient magnitude, angle, and radius in relation to another location in the image data for each of the locations, wherein the locations are indicated in the response image as tagged or non-tagged stool based on their density or brightness within the response image; and selecting locations in the response image above a threshold as polyp candidates.

    摘要: A method for grouping airway and artery pairs, includes: computing a two-dimensional (2D) cross-section of an airway; identifying regions of high-intensity in the 2D cross-section; computing a first indicator for each of the high intensity regions, wherein the first indicator is an orientation measure of the high intensity region with respect to the airway; computing a second indicator for each of the high intensity regions, wherein the second indicator is a circularity measure of the high intensity region; computing a third indicator for each of the high intensity regions, wherein the third indicator is a proximity measure of the high intensity region with respect to the airway; summing the first through third indicators for each of the high intensity regions to obtain a score for each of the high intensity regions; and determining which of the high intensity regions is an artery corresponding to the airway based on its score.

    摘要: A method for determining a size of an airway lumen and a thickness of an airway wall includes: computing a centerline of an airway; computing a three-dimensional (3D) gradient of a volume of the airway within a first threshold; positioning a tube along the centerline; iteratively expanding the tube by increasing its radius until the radius of the tube reaches the first threshold; determining inner and outer radii of the tube by checking the 3D gradient computed along an x-axis and a y-axis of the tube at a boundary of the tube at each iteration; and fitting the tube to the airway by using the determined inner and outer radii, wherein the inner radius of the fit tube is half a diameter of the airway lumen and the outer radius of the fit tube minus the inner radius of the fit tube is a thickness of the airway wall.
