Tissue classification for laparoscopic image understanding based on multispectral texture analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intraoperative tissue classification is one of the prerequisites for providing context-aware visualization in computer-assisted minimally invasive surgeries. As many anatomical structures are difficult to differentiate in conventional RGB medical images, we propose a classification method based on multispectral image patches. In a comprehensive ex vivo study through statistical analysis, we show that (1) multispectral imaging data are superior to RGB data for organ tissue classification when used in conjunction with widely applied feature descriptors and (2) combining the tissue texture with the reflectance spectrum improves the classification performance. The classifier reaches an accuracy of 98.4% on our dataset. Multispectral tissue analysis could thus evolve as a key enabling technique in computer-assisted laparoscopy.

متن کاملMultivariate Image Texture by Multivariate Variogram for Multispectral Image Classification
Traditional image texture measure usually allows a texture description of a single band of the spectrum, characterizing the spatial variability of gray-level values within the singleband image. A problem with the approach while applied to multispectral images is that it only uses the texture information from selected bands. In this paper, we propose a new multivariate texture measure based on t...
