Region-based clustering for lung segmentation in low-dose CT images

Lung segmentation in thoracic computed tomography scans is essential for the development of computer-aided diagnostic methods for identifying the lung diseases. Low-dose CT scans are increasingly utilized in lung studies, but segmenting them with traditional threshold segmentation algorithms often y...
