Arul King

Thank you very much Bruno Martin

Tariq M. Khan

There are several challenges, the first one is to correctly segment the ribs region once you are done with that then you must need good image processing techniques to enhance that region and lastly for finding the nodules in that region you may need good nodule detectors

For more details chk thus Article Lung Nodule and Cancer Detection in Computed Tomography Screening

Article Proficient lungs nodule detection and classification using m...
