    Abstract

    This paper presents the design of a fuzzy decision system for Cancer and Tuberculosis detection based on X-ray lung images. The system is in a tuning stage based on advices from medical experts. With a training set of 40 positive and 10 negative images, the system can classify correctly 42% positive cases with no false negative results. This is a promising result; however the system needs further tuning with additional features and concise examination rules
