Abstract

In Today’s world, there are number of deaths recorded causing Lung cancer. The main reason of lung cancer is
measured due to consumption of tobacco and its products like cigarettes etc…The ratio of lung cancer by consumption of these
products is about 85% or perhaps more than that. The lung cancer can be minimized, if the disease is to detect in initial stage.
Although the process of detection of the cancer takes too much time, Hence lung cancer detection system using several image
processing techniques to detect whether tumor is present or not in nodes of the lungs in CT-scan(Computed tomography) image. In
this study the software MATLAB is used in every step to process. Here, we discussed about techniques and results of that.
