Abstract(in English) Automated distinction of medical images is an important preprocessing in Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems. CAD systems have been developed using medical image sets with specific scan conditions and body parts. In this paper, we describe an automated distinction of DICOM images as a preprocessing for lung cancer CAD system. Firstly, the textual meta information such as scan conditions of DICOM image is distinguished. Secondly, the DICOM image is set to distinguish the body parts which are detected by image processing. The method is effective to the practical use of lung cancer CAD system in medical sites.
