Computer-assisted diagnosis for white light bronchoscopy: First results
Abstract
Computer-Assisted Diagnosis (CAD) systems are able to support physicians with the interpretation of complex image data acquired from modalities such as computed tomography scans (CT). CAD can provide an objective second opinion or detect suspicious regions automatically. However, few CAD systems for lung diseases based in other image modalities than CT, such as bronchoscopy, have been described.1-3 We present the results of our proposed CAD system based on white light bronchoscopy (WLB) images.
