Evaluation of methods of co-segmentation on PET/CT images of lung tumor: simulation study
Introduction: Lung cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Nowadays PET/CT plays an essential role in radiotherapy planning specially for lung tumors as it provides anatomical and functional information simultaneously that is effective in accurate tumor delineation. The optimal segmentation method has not been introduced yet, however several ...
متن کامل3D Liver Tumor Segmentation in CT Images Using Improved Fuzzy C-Means and Graph Cuts
Three-dimensional (3D) liver tumor segmentation from Computed Tomography (CT) images is a prerequisite for computer-aided diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring of liver cancer. Despite many years of research, 3D liver tumor segmentation remains a challenging task. In this paper, an efficient semiautomatic method was proposed for liver tumor segmentation in CT volumes based on improved f...
متن کاملSegmentation of Wood Fibres in 3D CT Images Using Graph Cuts
To completely segment all individual wood fibres in volume images of fibrous materials presents a challenging problem but is important in understanding the micro mechanical properties of composite materials. This paper presents a filter that identifies and closes pores in wood fibre walls, simplifying the shape of the fibres. After this filter, a novel segmentation method based on graph cuts id...
متن کاملSegmentation of Carotid Artery Ultrasound Images Using Graph Cuts
This paper proposes a scheme for segmenting carotid artery ultrasound images using graph cuts segmentation approach. Region homogeneity constraints, edge information and domain specific information are incorporated during the segmentation process. A graph with two terminals (source and sink) is formed by considering every pixel as a graph node. Each pair of neighbouring nodes is connected by a ...
متن کاملA Novel 3D Segmentation of Vertebral Bones from Volumetric CT Images Using Graph Cuts
Bone mineral density (BMD) measurements and fracture analysis of the spine bones are restricted to the Vertebral bodies (VBs). In this paper, we present a novel and fast 3D segmentation framework of VBs in clinical CT images using the graph cuts method. The Matched filter is employed to detect the VB region automatically. In the graph cuts method, a VB (object) and surrounding organs (backgroun...
