Classification of Leukocytes

Classification of Leukocytes

Leukocytes are classified into two groups based on the presence or absence of cytoplasmic granules. Granular leukocytes, which contain granules, belong to the myeloid lineage and are divided into three subtypes: neutrophils, eosinophils, and basophils. These cells are roughly spherical and characterized by the granules in their cytoplasm.
Neutrophils are the most abundant type of granular leukocytes, comprising 50-70% of all leukocytes. They feature small, evenly distributed granules and a...

Lung Capacity

Lung Capacity

The air in the lungs is measured in volumes and capacities. Lung volume measures reflect the amount of air taken in, released, or left over after a lung function, like a single inhalation. Lung capacity measures are sums of two or more lung volume measures.

Background:

Accurate differentiation of benign and malignant lung nodules on CT scans is crucial for patient management.
Content-based image retrieval (CBIR) offers a promising approach for analyzing lung nodule characteristics.

Purpose of the Study:

To introduce a novel two-step CBIR scheme (TSCBIR) for enhanced computer-aided diagnosis of lung nodules.
To develop and evaluate new similarity metrics for lung nodule comparison.

Main Methods:

The proposed TSCBIR scheme utilizes two similarity metrics: semantic relevance and visual similarity.
The first step involves retrieving K most similar regions of interest (ROIs) based on semantic relevance.
The second step weights retrieved ROIs by visual similarity to predict malignancy likelihood.

Main Results:

A dataset of 366 nodule ROIs from LIDC-IDRI CT scans was utilized for validation.
Three texture feature groups were employed to represent nodule ROIs.
The TSCBIR scheme demonstrated significant performance improvements compared to existing classifiers.

Conclusions:

The proposed TSCBIR method effectively measures nodule similarity for improved lung nodule diagnosis.
This approach shows potential for enhancing the accuracy of differentiating malignant from benign lung lesions on CT images.
