Automatic Segmentation of Brain CT Scan Image to Identify Hemorrhages
Segmentation is required as a preliminary step in the analysis of medical images for computer aided diagnosis. For detecting tumors, edema, hemorrhage or any other abnormality given the complex structure of the brain, precise segmentation is crucial. CT scan is preferred method in traumatic brain injuries due to better contrast on bone, low cost and wide availability. This paper proposes fully ...
متن کاملA Comparative Study on the Automatic Segmentation of Colon in CT Colonography Using K- Means And Fuzzy C-Means Clustering
Background: An approach for the automatic segmentation of colon which is filled with air and opacified fluid in CT colonography is presented. The presence of an air and partial volume effect is a challenging factor for the segmentation of colon. Therefore we have developed a new approach for the automatic segmentation of colon.Objective: To extract the segment of colon from all the slices of a ...
متن کاملAutomatic Segmentation of the Gross Tumor Volume in Prostate Carcinoma Using Fuzzy Clustering in Gallium-68 PSMA PET/CT Scan
Introduction: Modern radiotherapy (RT) techniques allow a highly precise deposition of the radiation dose in tumor. So, high conformal tumor doses can be reached while sparing critical organs at risk. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted in three phases. In the first phase; Fourteen patients with primary or recurrent prostate cancer receive Gallium-...
متن کاملSegmentation of Colon Tissue in CT Colonography Using Adaptive Level Sets Method
In this paper, we introduce an adaptive level set method for segmenting a colon filled with air and opacified fluid in CT colonography. We first use simple thresholding method to remove most of the opacified liquid. Then, closed contours with manual seed initialization are propagated toward the region boundaries through the iterative evolution of an adaptive implicit function. During each itera...
متن کاملSegmentation of Colon in Tagged CT Colonography Using Adaptive Level Sets Method
Accurate and reliable segmentation of the colon is important for 3D reconstruction, automatic colonic polyp detection and classification. In this paper, we introduce an adaptive level set method for segmenting colon filled with air and opacified fluid in CT colonography. We first use simple thresholding method to remove most of the opacified liquid. Then, closed contours with manual seeds initi...
