This paper describes a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) method to classify diffuse lung diseases (DLD) patterns on HRCT images. Due to the high variety and complexity of DLD patterns, the performance of conventional methods on recognizing DLD patterns featured by geometrical information is limited. In this paper, we introduced a sparse representation based method to classify normal tissues and five types of DLD patterns including consolidation, ground-glass opacity, honeycombing, emphysema and nodular. Both CT values and eigenvalues of Hessian matrices were adopted to calculate local features. The 2360 VOIs from 117 subjects were separated into two independent set. One set was used to optimize parameters, and the other set was adopted to evaluation. The proposed technique has a overall accuracy of 95.4%. Experimental results show that our method would be useful to classify DLD patterns on HRCT images. |
