本文提出的研究目的是自动检测肋骨边界的后前位（PA）数字胸片。在计算机辅助诊断系统中，肋骨的精确位置是重要的，因为它允许减少在检测诸如结节、肋骨病变和肺部病变的异常时的假阳性。我们采用了基于边缘的方法，旨在检测每根肋骨的下边界。为此，肋骨几何模型被描述为抛物线。对于每个肋，使用对应的下边界的位置获得上限。
The purpose of the research herein presented is the automatic detection of the rib borders in posterior-anterior (PA) digital chest radiographs. In a computer-aided diagnosis system, the precise location of the ribs is important as it allows reducing the false positive in the detection of abnormalities such as nodules, rib lesions and lung lesions. We adopted an edge based approach aiming at detecting the lower border of each rib. For this purpose, the rib geometric model is described as a parabola. For each rib, the upper limit is obtained using the position of the corresponding lower border.
