Multi-scale lacunarity as an alternative to quantify and diagnose the behavior of prostate cancer
作者：
Highlights：
• We present strategies for prostate cancer diagnosis.
• Our approach considers a new segmentation method and the multi-scale lacunarity.
• The lumen was defined as the best region to distinguish the groups studied.
• The tendency of the groups based on the lacunarity of the lumens is demonstrated.
• Our approach is a comprehensive reference for other studies.
