摘要: Positron emission tomography - computed (PET-CT) is now accepted as the best imaging technique to accurately stage lung cancer. The consistent and accurate interpretation of PETCT images, however, not a trivial task. We propose discriminative, multi-level learning inference method automatically detect pathological contexts in thoracic PET-CT i.e. primary tumor its spatial relationships within mediastinum, disease regional lymph nodes. detection results can also be used features retrieve similar images with previous diagnosis from an database reference set aid physicians scan interpretation. Our evaluation clinical data cancer patients suggests our approach highly accurate.
