Abstract

Ground Glass Opacity (GGO) in the image of the lungs is an object that is white in color. The image was recorded using a Computerized Tomography Scan (CT-Scan). This object has very similar color features to other objects in the lung image, making it very difficult to identify precisely. Likewise by observing the development of this object every time from recording continuously. This study aims to segment the GGO on CT-Scan images that are examined repeatedly due to an increase in complaints against patients. The processed image is an image of the lungs from the CT-Scan equipment. Patients were recorded twice at different time intervals. The processed image is an axial slice of the data cavity as a whole, totaling 12 images for each patient in each recording. The tool used for recording is a CT-Scan with the General Electric (GE) brand model D3162T. The method used is parallel processing with a combination of Image Enhancement techniques, Convert to Binary Image, Morphology Operation, Image Inverted, Active Contour Model, Image Addition, Convert Matrix to Grayscale, Image Filtering, Convert to Binary Image, Image Subtraction and Region Properties. The results of this study can identify the development of the GGO pixel size well, where the increasing number of patient complaints, the larger the GGO area. The extent of development of GGO is irregular with respect to time and examination. Each patient experienced an expansion of GGO by an average of 0.54% to 1.89%. This study is very good and can correctly identify ARF, so it can be used to measure the level of development of ARF in patients with accuracy.
