Lung Segmentation in 4D CT Volumes Based on Robust Active Shape Model Matching
Dynamic and longitudinal lung CT imaging produce 4D lung image data sets, enabling applications like radiation treatment planning or assessment of response to treatment of lung diseases. In this paper, we present a 4D lung segmentation method that mutually utilizes all individual CT volumes to derive segmentations for each CT data set. Our approach is based on a 3D robust active shape model and...
متن کاملRobust Active Shape Model Based Lung Segmentation in CT Scans
We present a fully automated approach for segmentation of lungs in CT datasets. The method was specifically designed to robustly segment lungs with cancer masses and consists of three processing steps. First, a ribcage detection algorithm is utilized to initialize our model-based segmentation method. Second, a robust active shape model matching approach is applied to roughly segment the outline...
متن کاملSegmentation of Lung on CT Images Using Robust Active Shape Model (RASM) and Tumour Location Using Morphological Processing
This paper presents a Computer Aided Detection method in Computed Tomography (CT) images of lungs using mathematical morphological operations, Early detection and treatment of lung cancer can greatly improve the survival rate of patient. Segmentation is one of the important step in analysing medical images, RASM segmentation is carried out in this paper. Pre-processing is carried out with the h...
متن کامل3D Active Shape Model Matching for Left Ventricle Segmentation in Cardiac CT
Manual quantitative analysis of cardiac left ventricular function using multi-slice CT is labor intensive because of the large datasets. We present an automatic, robust and intrinsically three-dimensional segmentation method for cardiac CT images, based on 3D Active Shape Models (ASMs). ASMs describe shape and shape variations over a population as a mean shape and a number of eigenvariations, w...
متن کاملRobust Initialization of Active Shape Models for Lung Segmentation in CT Scans: A Feature-Based Atlas Approach
Model-based segmentation methods have the advantage of incorporating a priori shape information into the segmentation process but suffer from the drawback that the model must be initialized sufficiently close to the target. We propose a novel approach for initializing an active shape model (ASM) and apply it to 3D lung segmentation in CT scans. Our method constructs an atlas consisting of a set...
