A method of automatically detecting pulmonary nodules is provided, including the operations of acquiring a chest computed tomography (CT) image, extracting a lung region from the chest CT image, extracting a group of nodule candidates from the lung region using a gray-level thresholding technique and a three-dimensional (3-D) region growing technique, and performing 3-D feature recursive analysis on all of the nodule candidates.
