Semi-automatic segmentation of subcutaneous tumours from micro-computed tomography images.
This paper outlines the first attempt to segment the boundary of preclinical subcutaneous tumours, which are frequently used in cancer research, from micro-computed tomography (microCT) image data. MicroCT images provide low tissue contrast, and the tumour-to-muscle interface is hard to determine, however faint features exist which enable the boundary to be located. These are used as the basis ...
متن کاملSemi-automated carotid lumen segmentation in computed tomography angiography images.
Carotid artery stenosis causes narrowing of carotid lumens and may lead to brain infarction. The purpose of this study was to develop a semi-automated method of segmenting vessel walls, surrounding tissues, and more importantly, the carotid artery lumen by contrast computed tomography angiography (CTA) images and to define the severity of stenosis and present a three-dimensional model of the ca...
متن کاملSemi-Automatic Integrated Segmentation Approaches and Contour Extraction Applied to Computed Tomography Scan Images
We propose to segment two-dimensional CT scans traumatic brain injuries with various methods. These methods are hybrid, feature extraction, level sets, region growing, and watershed which are analysed based upon their parametric and nonparametric arguments. The pixel intensities, gradient magnitude, affinity map, and catchment basins of these methods are validated based upon various constraints...
متن کاملSemi-automatic Liver Segmentation From Computed Tomography (CT) Scans based on Deformable Surfaces
This paper presents a semi-automatic segmentation method to extract the liver volume from CT scans, based on discrete deformable surfaces with both a priori shape and intensity information. A shape model of the liver, represented as a triangular mesh, is built and is manually located in the region of interest, to be iteratively deformed in function of the image intensity and edges. In the defor...
متن کاملSteerable Semi-automatic Segmentation of Textured Images
This paper generalizes the interactive method for region segmentation of grayscale images based on graph cuts by Boykov & Jolly (ICCV 2001) to colour and textured images. The main contribution lies in incorporating new functions handling colour and texture information into the graph representing an image, since the previous method works for grayscale images only. The suggested method is semi-au...
