Liver cancer: A geometric approach to fractals and scaling analysis
Appl Radiat Isot. 2023 Nov 25;204:111123. doi: 10.1016/j.apradiso.2023.111123. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn the study of liver cancer, invasive techniques such as computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used. In the present work, an in vivo 3D study will be carried out using MRI and CT images, using scaling dynamics, that is, calculating critical exponents of local roughness and fractal dimension. The results obtained for stages IA, IIA, and IIIA in liver cancer correspond to what was proposed by F. Family and T. Vicsek (1991).PMID:38113664 | DOI:10.1016/j.apradiso.2023.111123
