Project Work

The posteroanterior digital chest radiographs you can find in here were obtained using a dual-energy subtraction chest unit.

Find projections of those images that enhance
- a. the bone structure
- b. the lungs, and their bronchi structures
Process the lung-enhanced image with LoG functions of various scales. Compare these with standard (e.g., Butterworth) high-pass filtering.
Using the bone-enhanced image, segment the ribs (e.g., basing on orientation information)
Compare the oriented nature of both the bone structure and the bronchi, as extreme example cases. You may want to use rose diagrams.
Deblur the lung contour.
Estimate the area of the lung cavity.
