Computer-aided diagnosis of pulmonary nodules from chest X-rays using rotation forest

A chest X-ray examination is a painless, non-invasive, and cost effective medical examination performed at present day. A pulmonary nodule is a small round lesion or mass in the lungs which can be indicative of an infection or a neoplasm. Chest X-rays can be used to diagnose pulmonary nodules. This...
