Fully automated segmentation of callus by micro-CT compared to biomechanics
BACKGROUND A high percentage of closed femur fractures have slight comminution. Using micro-CT (μCT), multiple fragment segmentation is much more difficult than segmentation of unfractured or osteotomied bone. Manual or semi-automated segmentation has been performed to date. However, such segmentation is extremely laborious, time-consuming and error-prone. Our aim was to therefore apply a fully...
متن کاملMultiple Genetic Snakes for Bone Segmentation
Clinical assessment of skeletal age is a frequent, but yet difficult and time-consuming task. Automatic methods which estimate the skeletal age from a hand radiogram are currently being studied. This work presents a method to segment each bone complex in the radiogram, using a modified active contour approach. Each bone is modelled by an independent contour, while neighbouring contours are coup...
متن کاملA Modified Character Segmentation Algorithm for Farsi Printed Text Using Upper Contour Labelling
In this paper, a modified segmentation algorithm for printed Farsi words is presented. This algorithm is based on a previous work by Azmi that uses the conditional labeling of the upper contour to find the segmentation points. The main objective is to improve the segmentation results for low quality prints. To achieve this, various modifications on local baseline detection, contour labeling an...
متن کاملEvaluation of methods of co-segmentation on PET/CT images of lung tumor: simulation study
Introduction: Lung cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Nowadays PET/CT plays an essential role in radiotherapy planning specially for lung tumors as it provides anatomical and functional information simultaneously that is effective in accurate tumor delineation. The optimal segmentation method has not been introduced yet, however several ...
