Partial volume effect modeling for segmentation and tissue classification of brain magnetic resonance images: A review.
Quantitative analysis of magnetic resonance (MR) brain images are facilitated by the development of automated segmentation algorithms. A single image voxel may contain of several types of tissues due to the finite spatial resolution of the imaging device. This phenomenon, termed partial volume effect (PVE), complicates the segmentation process, and, due to the complexity of human brain anatomy,...
متن کاملGeneralized method for partial volume estimation and tissue segmentation in cerebral magnetic resonance images.
An artifact found in magnetic resonance images (MRI) called partial volume averaging (PVA) has received much attention since accurate segmentation of cerebral anatomy and pathology is impeded by this artifact. Traditional neurological segmentation techniques rely on Gaussian mixture models to handle noise and PVA, or high-dimensional feature sets that exploit redundancy in multispectral dataset...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance image tissue classification using a partial volume model.
We describe a sequence of low-level operations to isolate and classify brain tissue within T1-weighted magnetic resonance images (MRI). Our method first removes nonbrain tissue using a combination of anisotropic diffusion filtering, edge detection, and mathematical morphology. We compensate for image nonuniformities due to magnetic field inhomogeneities by fitting a tricubic B-spline gain field...
متن کاملPartial volume segmentation of brain magnetic resonance images based on maximum a posteriori probability.
Noise, partial volume (PV) effect, and image-intensity inhomogeneity render a challenging task for segmentation of brain magnetic resonance (MR) images. Most of the current MR image segmentation methods focus on only one or two of the above-mentioned effects. The objective of this paper is to propose a unified framework, based on the maximum a posteriori probability principle, by taking all the...
متن کاملSegmentation of Brain Magnetic Resonance Images (MRIs): A Review
MR imaging modality has assumed an important position in studying the characteristics of soft tissues. Generally, images acquired by using this modality are found to be affected by noise, partial volume effect (PVE) and intensity nonuniformity (INU). The presence of these factors degrades the quality of the image. As a result of which, it becomes hard to precisely distinguish between different ...
