摘要
This paper presents a fundamental approach for quantitative diagnosis of pneumoconiosis by detecting rounded opacities of pneumoconiosis on CT images. This method is based on mathematical morphology. The software system consists of three major processing steps, that is, detection of rounded opacity candidates with multistructuring elements, and reduction of false pneumoconiosis opacities caused by blood vessels. Experimental results of automatic diagnosis show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
