Abstract: This paper is designed to detect the lungs caner from a MRI image, taken from a
particular angle. The image shows a big spot in left part of lung that may be suspicious object, from
which some part is extracted that is our ROI. Another sample of normal image is also extracted. We
compare the intensity of value of both image samples and observe that cancer infected flash image
has very much variation in intensity values at many palaces while normal flash image dont show any
big variation in intensity values in image.
Keywords : Cancer detection, MRI ,ROI, Segmentation, Enhancement.
Introduction :
The lungs are a pair of sponge with cone
shape. The right lung has three lobes and left
lung has two lobes. The right lung is larger
than the left lung. The oxygen is provided to
lung by inhaling process. The lungs tissue
transfer oxygen to blood stream.
The lung cancer is a disease of abnormal cells
multiplying and growing into a tumor cancer
cells can be carried away from the lungs in
blood. Metastasis occurs when a cancer cell
leaves the site where it began and move into a
lymph node or to another part of the body
through the blood stream[1]. The lung cancer
often spread toward the centre of the chest
because the natural flow of lymph out of the
lungs is toward the centre of the chest.
There are several different type of lung cancer
and these are divided into main two category ;
small cell lung cancer and non-small cell lung
cancer which has three subtypes ; Carcinoma,
Aden
carcinoma
and
squamous
cell
Carcinomas. It is observed that lung cancer
ranked second among males and 10 th among
females[2].
The image processing technique are used
widely in various medical areas for improving
earlier detection and treatment stages. The
time factor is very important to discover the
disease in the patient as possible as fast,
especially in various Cancer tumors like lung
cancer, breast cancer. The early detection of
lung cancer is very important for successful
treatment.

This method of lungs cancer detection follow

some steps :
we take MRI images of lungs, taken
from different angles.
Choose suspected image and extract
the suspect part of the image.
Take a image sample of suspect part of
image.
Take a image sample of normal side of
image.
Compare the intensity values of both
sample images.
It is found that cancer infected
grayscale image sample has a big
variation in pixel intensity values at
some places
Steps :
Acquiring Image from MRI Machine
Setting up ROI

Taking Sample of Suspected Cancer infected

Flash in Image
Taking Sample of Normal Flash in Image
Comparing the Intensity Values of Both Image
The pixel intensity values of both samples of
grayscale images shows that there is big
variation in pixels intensity values of cancer
infected image. This method is helpful to
detected the cancer at early stage.
Matlab coding to get pixels intensity values :
C=imread(c:\infectsample.jpg);
E=rgb2gray(C);
Disp(E);
D=imread(c:\normalsample.jpg);
F=rgb2gray(D);
Disp(F);

Conclusion :
After comparing the intensity values of both
images , it is found that suspected cancer
infected image has a big variation in intensity
values while normal flash image dont show
any major changes in surrounding pixels.
Hence this method will be very helpful to
dectect the cancer at early stage.
