Mr Image Segmentation Using Level Set Method

In this paper, we proposed a mechanism based on level set method to find the bone marrow parts of the knee MR images. The segmentation can be divided into three steps. The first step is to do rough segmentation on the image using level set method. The second step is to do further segmentation on the result of level set method, and then eliminating the fragments caused by level set method. The third step is to find the bone marrow parts by using the shape feature of each segmentation part. Our experimental result will show that the bone marrow parts can be correctly segmented by the above mechanism.
