STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF THE TYPE OF PATHOLOGY AT THE QUANTITATIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF MEDICAL IMAGES
The possibility of differentiation of pathologies on the basis of quantitative analysis of medical images of internal organs. It is clear that there is no single diagnostic feature, based on the quantitative charac- terization of the image, which would have immediately allowed us to determine the type of pathology. Found that the average density of the region of interest Hounsfield for patients with lung cancer is high- er than for patients with tuberculosis and this difference was statistically significant. The average frac- tal dimension of the area of interest for patients with lung cancer is higher than for patients with tuber- culosis. Statistical analysis indicates that the difference is considered the most significant of quantita- tive characteristics.
