Classification of Benign and Malignant Lung Nodules Based on Deep Convolutional Network Feature Extraction

With the rapid development of detection technology, CT imaging technology has been widely used in the early clinical diagnosis of lung nodules. However, accurate assessment of the nature of the nodule remains a challenging task due to the subjective nature of the radiologist. With the increasing amo...

With the increasing amount of publicly available lung image data, it has become possible to use convolutional neural networks for benign and malignant classification of lung nodules.

Therefore, we propose a novel deep convolutional network approach to classify the benignity and malignancy of lung nodules.
