Level Set Based Segmentation of the Distal Femur from 3d Ultrasound Volume Images
Computer assisted surgery can improve accuracy and precision in many surgical techniques (Stiehl2005, Jenny2005). Moreover, imaging based computer assisted procedures allow for planning and visual control during all steps (Victor2005). Often, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used as imaging modalities. CT offers good image quality but due to its ionizing radiati...
متن کاملLevel Set Segmentation of Cellular Images Based on Topological Dependence
Segmentation of cellular images presents a challenging task for computer vision, especially when the cells of irregular shapes clump together. Level set methods can segment cells with irregular shapes when signal-to-noise ratio is low, however they could not effectively segment cells that are clumping together. We perform topological analysis on the zero level sets to enable effective segmentat...
متن کاملSegmentation of Images Using Level Set Analysis
We propose an image segmentation technique using level set analysis. Image level set is the binary decomposition of a gray level image. Connected components in the level set, less than a pre-defined size are removed from the level set. Based on level set topology an exposed connected component is defined in the level set. These exposed connected components are merged based on a proximity value ...
متن کاملDistribution-based Level Set Segmentation for Brain MR Images
In this paper, we propose a distribution-based active contour model for brain MRI segmentation. As a generalization of the Chan-Vese piecewise-constant model, our solution uses Bayesian a posterior probabilities as the driving forces for curve evolution. Distribution prior, if available, can be seamlessly integrated into the level set evolution procedure. Unlike other region-based active contou...
متن کاملLevel set segmentation of bovine corpora lutea in ex situ ovarian ultrasound images
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to investigate the viability of level set image segmentation methods for the detection of corpora lutea (corpus luteum, CL) boundaries in ultrasonographic ovarian images. It was hypothesized that bovine CL boundaries could be located within 1-2 mm by a level set image segmentation methodology. METHODS Level set methods embed a 2D contour in a 3D surf...
