In this paper, we describe a knowledge-based system for segmenting and labeling lung nodule on helical CT images. The system was developed under a blackboard environment that incorporates a lung knowledge model, image processing model, inference engine and a blackboard. Lung model, which contains both analogical and propositional knowledge about lung in the form of semantic networks, was used to guide the interpretation process. The system works in a hierarchical structure, from large structures to the final nodule candidates by focusing on the interested region step by step. The symbolic variables, introduced to accomplish high-level inference, were defined by fuzzy confidence functions in the lung model. Composite fuzzy functions were applied to evaluate the plausibility of the mapping between the image and lung model objects. Anatomical lung segments knowledge was embedded in the system to direct 3D validation of suspicious objects. Structures were identified and abnormal objects were reported. The experimental results obtained demonstrate the proof of concept and the potential of the automated knowledge-based lung nodule detection system.
