Fuzzy Connectedness Image Co-segmentation for Hybrid PET/MRI and PET/CT Scans
In this paper, we presented a 3-D computer-aided co-segmentation tool for tumor/lesion detection and quantification from hybrid PET/MRI and PET/CT scans. The proposed method was designed with a novel modality-specific visibility weighting scheme built upon a fuzzy connectedness (FC) image segmentation algorithm. In order to improve the determination of lesion margin, it is necessary to combine ...
متن کاملSpatial Fuzzy C Means PET Image Segmentation of Neurodegenerative Disorder
Nuclear image has emerged as a promising research work in medical field. Images from different modality meet its own challenge. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) image may help to precisely localize disease to assist in planning the right treatment for each case and saving valuable time. In this paper, a novel approach of Spatial Fuzzy C-Means (PET-SFCM) clustering algorithm is introduced on P...
متن کاملContourlet-based active contour model for PET image segmentation.
PURPOSE PET-guided radiation therapy treatment planning, clinical diagnosis, assessment of tumor growth, and therapy response rely on the accurate delineation of the tumor volume and quantification of tracer uptake. Most PET image segmentation techniques proposed thus far are suboptimal in the presence of heterogeneity of tracer uptake within the lesion. This work presents an active contour mod...
متن کاملSegmentation of PET volumes by iterative image thresholding.
UNLABELLED The segmentation of metastatic volumes in PET is usually performed by thresholding methods. In a clinical application, the optimum threshold obtained from the adaptive thresholding method requires a priori estimation of the lesion volume from anatomic images such as CT. We describe an iterative thresholding method (ITM) used to estimate the PET volumes without anatomic a priori knowl...
متن کاملFDG-PET/MRI fused data sets for the detection of liver metastases in patients undergoing systemic anticancer treatment
Background: To retrospectively describe imaging characteristics of liver metastases on fused FDG-PET/ MRI data sets and to compare the diagnostic accuracy of MRI and fused FDG-PET/MRI data sets for the detection of liver metastases in patients undergoing systemic anticancer treatment. Materials and Methods: 43 oncological patients (mean age: 56+/- 11 years) were investigated by FDG-PET...
