Scientists have considered the programmed segmentation of lung areas as a fundamental pre-processing undertaking when examining pulmonary radiographs (CXRs) obviously. In this paper, a method for lung field segmentation is proposed. This is performed on MATLAB image processing coding. It improves the speed of processing and detects abnormality in the lung area. The method used is Normalized Gradient Gaussian Filter and Snake segmentation is combined to improve the performance of edge detector.
