The emergence of High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) images of the lungs clearly shows the parenchymal lung architecture and thus the quantification of obstructive lung disease becomes most accurate. In this study, an automated system to diagnose obstructive lung disease called emphysema is presented using HRCT images of the lungs. The kind of texture information that ideally can be extracted from HRCT images depends on the multi-resolution representation system. The proposed Pulmonary Emphysema Analysis (PEA) system employs Shearlets as it can extracts more texture information than wavelets in different directions and levels. Radial Basis Function Network (RBFN) is employed for the classification of HRCT images into three categories; Normal Tissue (NT), Paraseptal Emphysema (PSE) and Centrilobular Emphysema (CLE). Results prove that a confident diagnosis of pulmonary emphysema is established to help clinicians which will also increase the precision of diagnosis.
