Segmentation with Active Contours

Active contours (also known as snakes) have shown their ability to introduce regularity on image segmentation. In contrast with level-set approaches, the active techniques based a contour parameterization are able maintain initial topology of area interest. For this reason, it has been used in recent medical research for diaphragm Most on-line codes 2D/3D segmentation, well built-in Matlab toolboxes methods. Moreover, literature, implementation details methods meshes three dimensions tight, making tedious any reproduction these techniques. paper, we give some meshes, especially about choice use mesh and its refinement. We also explore parameters quantitative study influence segmentation results. The 3D method applied CT scan images lungs.
