Segmentation of lymph nodes using CT images.

Lymph node size analysis is very important medically, especially in tumor staging. Node size may indicate tumor activity, and an even more important measure is the change of size over time. A method to calculate lymph node size involving diameter measurements and area calculations involve lymph node...
