Publication number: 20090252395Abstract: A computer assisted method of detecting and classifying lung nodules within a set of CT images to identify the regions of the CT images in which to search for potential lung nodules. The lungs are processed to identify a subregion of a lung on a CT image. The computer defines a nodule centroid for a nodule class of pixels and a background centroid for a background class of pixels within the subregion in the CT image; and determines a nodule distance between a pixel and the nodule centroid and a background distance between the pixel and the background centroid. Thereafter, the computer assigns the pixel to the nodule class or to the background class based on the first and second distances; stores the identification in a memory; and analyzes the nodule class to determine the likelihood of each pixel cluster being a true nodule.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 15, 2009Publication date: October 8, 2009Applicant: THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGANInventors: Heang-Ping Chan, Berkman Sahiner, Lubomir M.

Publication number: 20050207630Abstract: A computer assisted method of detecting and classifying lung nodules within a set of CT images includes performing body contour, airway, lung and esophagus segmentation to identify the regions of the CT images in which to search for potential lung nodules. The lungs are processed to identify the left and right sides of the lungs and each side of the lung is divided into subregions including upper, middle and lower subregions and central, intermediate and peripheral subregions. The computer analyzes each of the lung regions to detect and identify a three-dimensional vessel tree representing the blood vessels at or near the mediastinum. The computer then detects objects that are attached to the lung wall or to the vessel tree to assure that these objects are not eliminated from consideration as potential nodules.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 14, 2003Publication date: September 22, 2005Applicant: The Regents of the University of Michigan Technology Management OfficeInventors: Heang-Ping Chan, Berkman Sahiner, Lubomir Hadjiyski, Chuan Zhou, Nicholas Petrick

Publication number: 20030133595Abstract: A segmentation system is disclosed that allows a segmented image of a vehicle occupant to be identified within an overall image (the “ambient image”) of the area that includes the image of the occupant. The segmented image from a past sensor measurement within can help determine a region of interest within the most recently captured ambient image. To further reduce processing time, the system can be configured to assume that the bottom of segmented image does not move. Differences between the various ambient images captured by the sensor can be used to identify movement by the occupant, and thus the boundary of the segmented image. A template image is then fitted to the boundary of the segmented image for an entire range of predetermined angles. The validity of each fit within the range of angles can be evaluated. The template image can also be modified for future ambient images.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2002Publication date: July 17, 2003Applicant: Eaton CorporationInventors: Michael E.
