Abstract In the contemporary era, the death rate is increasing due to lung cancer. However, technology is continuously enhancing the quality of well-being. To improve the survival rate, radiologists rely on Computed Tomography (CT) scans for early detection and diagnosis of lung nodules. This paper presented a detailed, systematic review of several identification and categorization techniques for lung nodules. The analysis of the report explored the challenges, advancements, and future opinions in computer-aided diagnosis CAD systems for detecting and classifying lung nodules employing the deep learning (DL) algorithm. The findings also highlighted the usefulness of DL… More >

Abstract One of the leading causes of mortality worldwide is liver cancer. The earlier the detection of hepatic tumors, the lower the mortality rate. This paper introduces a computer-aided diagnosis system to extract hepatic tumors from computed tomography scans and classify them into malignant or benign tumors. Segmenting hepatic tumors from computed tomography scans is considered a challenging task due to the fuzziness in the liver pixel range, intensity values overlap between the liver and neighboring organs, high noise from computed tomography scanner, and large variance in tumors shapes. The proposed method consists of three main More >
