Abstract
This paper describes the approach for automatic identifying organs from a medical CT imagery. Main assumption of this approach is the use of data sets and domain knowledge. We apply this approach to automatic classification of chest organs (trachea, lungs, bronchus) and present the results to demonstrate their usefulness and effectiveness. The paper includes the results of experiments that have been performed on medical data obtained from II Department of Internal Medicine, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Krakow, Poland. The experimental results showed that the approach is promising and can be used in the future to support solving more complex medical problems.
