CSE Research Scholar and Professors published original Research Article in a Scopus Indexed International Journal of Engineering Trends and Technology

A Research article titled - "Early Diagnosis of Lung Cancer Using Computer Aided Detection via Lung Segmentation Approach" authored by Mr. Abhir Bhandary, PhD Research Scholar, Dept. of Computer Science & Engineering under the guidance of Professors Dr. Ananth Prabhu G and Dr. Mustafa Basthikodi, Dept. of Computer Science & Engineering published in Scopus indexed journal, International Journal of Engineering Trends and Technology, Volume 69, Issue 5, 85-93, May 2021.
Research Highlights:
American Cancer Society estimates about 27% of the deaths are because of cancer. In the early phase of its evolution, lung cancer does not cause any symptoms usually. Many of the patients have been diagnosed in a developed phase where symptoms become more prominent, which results in poor curative treatment and high mortality rate. Computer Aided Detection systems are used to achieve greater accuracies for the lung cancer diagnosis. An improved Lung parenchyma segmentation technique based on Adaptive Thresholding, Active Contour Model Segmentation and Fuzzy C-Means Clustering are suggested in the paper.
