Automated Detection Algorithm of Breast Masses in Three-Dimensional Ultrasound Images
OBJECTIVES We propose an automatic breast mass detection algorithm in three-dimensional (3D) ultrasound (US) images using the Hough transform technique. METHODS One hundred twenty-five cropped images containing 68 benign and 60 malignant masses are acquired with clinical diagnosis by an experienced radiologist. The 3D US images are masked, subsampled, contrast-adjusted, and median-filtered as...
متن کاملAutomated Breast Lesion Segmentation in Ultrasound Images
The main objective of this project is to segment different breast ultrasound images to find out lesion area by discarding the low contrast regions as well as the inherent speckle noise. The proposed method consists of three stages (removing noise, segmentation, classification) in order to extract the correct lesion. We used normalized cuts approach to segment ultrasound images into regions of i...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Flexible Needle Streering Using Two-dimensional Ultrasound Images
One of the most commonly performed minimally invasive surgical procedures is needle insertion. Such needle insertions are often performed either for diagnosis (e.g., biopsies) or therapy (e.g., brachytherapy), both of which require accurate needle placement. These procedures are frequently performed under ultrasound image-guidance which provides visual feedback. Clinicians usually use rigid bev...
متن کاملFetal Heart Assessment Using Three-dimensional Ultrasound
Cardiac anatomy is complex and often difficult to visualize or comprehend. 3D echocardiography is an area undergoing rapid development that represents a natural extension of conventional sonography methods which require integrating a series of 2D image slices to develop a 3D impression of underlying anatomy or pathology. This paper will review some of the basic concepts behind three-dimensional...
متن کاملThree-dimensional registration of prostate images from histology and ultrasound.
A whole mount histology protocol for 3-D tissue reconstruction to compare the size and spatial location of tumors (and other components) identified in histology data with that from 3-D ultrasound (US) images is presented. Prostate specimens are imaged in 3-D using B-mode (US) and sonoelastography. The prostate surface is outlined in each B-mode image and a 3-D surface reconstruction is made. Th...
