Air trapping is an abnormal retention of air that occurs after expiration state in the lungs, observed in all types of bronchiolar and obstructive lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome. Air trapping is often incidentally diagnosed on computed tomography (CT) scanning but this method needs doctors so it is subjective and depends on their experience. In this paper, we present a novel method for evaluation of air trapping in the lungs for detection of COPD in CT images. The proposed method finds volumetric variations of the lungs from inspiration to expiration. To this end, trachea CT images at full inspiration and expiration are compared and the volumetric variations are used to classify the subjects. In the evaluated cases, the proposed method is able to estimate air trapping in the lungs from CT images without human intervention. This method may assist radiologists to measure and evaluate air trapping for detection of COPD as a computer aided diagnosis (CAD) system.

A novel image retrieval approach based on color features and anisotropic directional information is proposed for content based image retrieval systems (CBIR). The color feature is described by the color histogram (CH), which is translation and rotation invariant. However, the CH does not contain spatial information which is very important for the image retrieval. To overcome this shortcoming, the subband energy of the lifting directionlet transform (L-DT) is proposed to describe the directional information, in which L-DT is characterized by multi-direction and anisotropic basis functions compared with the wavelet transform. A global similarity measure is designed to implement the fusion of both color feature and anisotropic directionality for the retrieval process. The retrieval experiments using a set of COREL images demonstrate that the higher query precision and better visual effect can be achieved.
