Enhanced Segmentation Method for Bone Structure and Diaphysis Extraction from X-ray Images
Medical imaging systems have been used in various medical application domains like trauma centre, orthopedic, pain management and vascular and non-vascular. One of the oldest and frequently used devices to capture human bones is X-Ray. During the process of identifying fractures, a vital step is the extraction of bone structure from the x-ray image. In this paper, a model that combines multi-re...
متن کاملAn Interactive X-Ray Image Segmentation Technique for Bone Extraction
Image segmentation plays a fundamental role in many medical imaging applications by facilitating the contouring of the regions of interest. In this paper, we propose an accurate interactive method which combines two image segmentation techniques. In the first step, a mean shift segmentation algorithm is used for initial segmentation, followed by an adaptive region merging process based on the m...
متن کاملSegmentation and Feature Extraction of Panoramic Dental X-Ray Images
Automating the process of analysis of Panoramic X-Ray images is important to help dentist procedures and diagnosis. Tooth segmentation from the radiographic images and feature extraction are essential steps. The authors propose a segmentation approach based on mathematical morphology, quadtree decomposition for mask generation, thresholding, and snake models. The feature extraction stage is ste...
متن کاملSegmentation and feature extraction of cervical spine x-ray images
As part of an R&D project in mixed text/image database design, the National Library of Medicine has archived a collection of 17,000 digitized x-ray images of the cervical and lumbar spine which were collected as part of the second National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES II). To make this image data available and usable to a wide audience, we are investigating techniques for ind...
متن کاملAutomatic Ribs Segmentation and Counting From Mouse X-ray Images
The automatic detection and quantification of skeletal structures has a variety of applications for biological research. This paper proposes an automatic solution for rib segmentation and counting based on structural properties of ribs in mouse X-ray images. The solution consists of five stages, including alignment, cropping the region of interest, image enhancement, rib segmentation, filtering...
