A 3-D Riesz-Covariance Texture Model for Prediction of Nodule Recurrence in Lung CT

This paper proposes a novel imaging biomarker of lung cancer relapse from 3-D texture analysis of CT images. Three-dimensional morphological nodular tissue properties are described in terms of 3-D Riesz-wavelets. The responses of the latter are aggregated ...
