Introduction: Nowadays virtual colonoscopy has become a reliable and efficient method of detecting primary stages of colon cancer such as polyp detection. One of the most important and crucial stages of virtual colonoscopy is colon segmentation because an incorrect segmentation may lead to a misdiagnosis.  Materials and Methods: In this work, a hybrid method based on Geometric Deformable Models...

segmentation and three‑dimensional (3d) visualization of teeth in dental computerized tomography (ct) images are of dentists’ requirements for both abnormalities diagnosis and the treatments such as dental implant and orthodontic planning. on the other hand, dental ct image segmentation is a difficult process because of the specific characteristics of the tooth’s structure. this paper presents ...

like other sciences, market segmentation, as a science, seeks to realize unique needs of human being. in health market, individual diagnostic and curative methods are practiced more than anytime. however, a foundation of this market, pharmaceutical market, is not as advanced as other products and services markets in terms of segmentation. regarding the complexity of pharmaceutical market, it is...

Introduction:  The  advent  of  dual-modality  PET/CT  scanners  has  revolutionized  clinical  oncology  by  improving lesion localization and facilitating treatment planning for radiotherapy. In addition, the use of  CT images for CT-based attenuation correction (CTAC) decreases the overall scanning time and creates  a noise-free  attenuation  map  (6map).  CTAC  methods  include  scaling,  s...

introduction: various computer assisted medical procedures such as dental implant, orthodontic planning, face, jaw and cosmetic surgeries require automatic quantification and volumetric visualization of teeth. in this regard, segmentation is a major step. material and methods: in this paper, inspired by our previous experiences and considering the anatomical knowledge of teeth and jaws, we prop...

background and objectives: identification of surgical instruments in laparoscopic video images has several biomedical applications. while several methods have been proposed for accurate detection of surgical instruments, the accuracy of these methods is still challenged high complexity of the laparoscopic video images. this paper introduces a surgical instrument detection framework (sidf) for a...

breast lesion segmentation in mr images is one of the most important parts of clinical diagnostic tools. pixel classification methods have been frequently used in image segmentation with two supervised and unsupervised approaches up to now. supervised segmentation methods lead to high accuracy, but they need a large amount of labeled data, which is hard, expensive, and slow to be obtained. on t...

texture image analysis is one of the most important working realms of image processing in medical sciences and industry. up to present, different approaches have been proposed for segmentation of texture images. in this paper, we offered unsupervised texture image segmentation based on markov random field (mrf) model. first, we used gabor filter with different parameters’ (frequency, orientatio...

assessment of cardiac right‑ventricle functions plays an essential role in diagnosis of arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (arvd). among clinical tests, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (mri) is now becoming the most valid imaging technique to diagnose arvd. fatty infiltration of the right ventricular free wall can be visible on cardiac mri. finding right‑ventricle functional paramete...
