Automatic detection of pulmonary nodules in CT images by incorporating 3D tensor filtering with local image feature analysis

•3D tensor filtering and local image features help detect lung nodule.•Image features contributes to improve the performance of CAD scheme.•False-positive nodules are reduced by using random forest classifier. Computer-aided detection (CAD) technology has been developed and demonstrated its potentia...
