Opis

Cancer is a genetic disease, which is caused by an uncontrolled division of abnormal cells in a part of the body. Cancer can start almost anywhere in the human body. There are almost 100 types of cancer. These types of cancer are usually named for the organs where cancer forms. Like most common cancer today is Lung Cancer which starts in cells of lung. Many of lung cancer detection techniques depend on human experience and image of ct-scan are observed in literature. But detection of lung cancer using x-ray images is discussed by few. Using Image Processing and clustering techniques considering x-ray image of affected lungs can be an efficient method to detect it early.
