PROBLEM STATEMENT :

 LUNG CANCER IS FORMED IN TISSUES OF THE LUNGS ,USUALLY IN THE

CELLS THAT LINE THE AIR PASSAGES.
 IT IS DEVELOPED WHEN NORMAL LUNGS CELLS CHANGE , OR MUTATE IN A
WAY THAT ALTERS THEIR NATURAL GROWTH AND DEATH CYCLE.
 CHEST PAIN, COUGH, TROUBLE BREATHING, BLOOD IN SPUTUM , FATIGUE
ARE THE BASIC SYMPTOMS OF LUNG CANCER .
 THIS USUALLY OCCURS FOR BOTH MEN AND WOMEN ,ALSO IN DOGS AND
CATS BUT IT IS VERY RARE.
 SMOKING, GENITICS, EXPOSURE TO HARMFUL CHEMICALS AND
RADIATION ,HIV INFECTION AND AIR POLLUTION ARE THE FACTORS WHICH
CAUSE LUNG CANCER.
PROPOSED METHODOLOGY FOR
PREVENTION:
 “STAY AWAY FROM TOBACCO” MEANING NOT TO SMOKE TOBACCO AS WELL
AS BE DISTANT FROM SMOKERS.
 AVOIDING RADON EXPOSURE BY REGULAR TESTING AND TREATING OF OUR
HOME.
 AVOIDING EXPOSURE TO KNOWN CANCER CAUSING AGENTS.
 WHEN PEOPLE WORK WHERE THESE EXPOSURES ARE COMMON , THEY
SHOULD BE KEPT IN MINIMUM.
 “EAT A HEALTHY DIET”.DIET HIGH IN FRUITS AND VEGETABLES MAY HELP
PEOPLE THOSE WHO SMOKE AND THOSE WHO DON’T AGAINST LUNG CANCER.
 ALTHOUGH WE KNOW HOW TO PREVENT LUNG CANCERS , NOT ALL CAN BE
PREVENTED.
 THE SYSTEM FORMED ACCEPTS ANYONE OF MEDICAL IMAGE WITHIN THE
THREE CHOICES CONSISTING OF, MRI , CT, SONOGRAPHY SCANS AS INPUT.
 AFTER PROCESSING OF IMAGE CANNY FILTER IS USED FOR EDGE
DETECTION.
 SUPER PIXEL SEGMENTATION IS USED FOR MEDICAL IMAGE
SEGMENTATION.
 GABOR FILTER IS USED FOR DE-NOISING THE MEDICAL IMAGES.
 SIMULATION ARE OBTAINED FOR THE CANCER DETETCTION SYSTEM USING
MATLAB .
 COMPARISON IS DONE BETWEEN THE THREE MEDICAL IMAGE.

IMAGE PRE-PROCESSING  IMAGE SEGMENTATION FEATURE EXTRACTION 

LUNG CANCER CELL IDENTIFICATION  DIAGNOSIS RESULT
