Abstract :
With the rapid development of medical imaging technologies, images, and especially digital images, are produced in ever-increasing quantities and more and more important in diagnostics and therapy. This article proposes a retrieval methodology based on integrated feature for CT images of chest scan. Experiments on 1000 CT images of chest scan demonstrate that retrieval based on integrated feature together with proper feedback can get better performance than on single feature.
