Segmenting Dermoscopic Images
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose an automatic algorithm, named SDI, for the segmentation of skin lesions in dermoscopic images, articulated into three main steps: selection of the image ROI, selection of the segmentation band, and segmentation. We present extensive experimental results achieved by the SDI algorithm on the lesion segmentation dataset made available for the ISIC 2017 challenge on Skin Lesion Analysis Towards Melanoma Detection, highlighting its advantages and disadvantages.

A Hybrid Approach to Segmenting Hair in Dermoscopic Images Using a Universal Kernel
Hair occlusion often causes automated melanoma diagnostic systems to fail. We present a new method to segment hair in dermoscopic images. First, all possible dark and light hairs are amplified without prejudice with a universal matched filtering kernel. We then process the filter response with a novel tracing algorithm to get a raw hair mask. This raw mask is skeletonized to contain only the ce...
متن کاملLimitations of dermoscopy in the recognition of melanoma.
OBJECTIVE To compare dermoscopic features of melanocytic nevi with those of early melanomas that were not excised initially because of their uncharacteristic clinical and dermoscopic appearance. DESIGN Retrospective study of the baseline images of 325 melanocytic skin lesions that were observed by digital dermoscopy and finally excised because of changes over time. SETTING A dermatologic cl...
متن کاملA Review of Segmentation Techniques on Melanoma Detection
In the current scenario focal point is on the development of CAD (Computer Aided Diagnosis) for dermoscopic images. In this paper, different kinds of segmentation algorithms are analyzed for automatic segmentation of skin lesions in dermoscopic images being evaluated. Among the implemented segmentation algorithms, border detection algorithm has achieved a better performance, when compared to ot...
متن کاملPattern Recognition in Macroscopic and Dermoscopic Images for Skin Lesion Diagnosis
Pattern recognition in macroscopic and dermoscopic images is a challenging task in skin lesion diagnosis. The search for better performing classification has been a relevant issue for pattern recognition in images. Hence, this work was particularly focused on skin lesion pattern recognition, especially in macroscopic and dermoscopic images. For the pattern recognition in macroscopic images, a c...
متن کاملDermoscopic island: a new descriptor for thin melanoma.
OBJECTIVES To determine the frequency and the features of the dermoscopic island (DI) in melanocytic lesions and to assess its specificity for the diagnosis of melanoma. Dermoscopy improves the diagnostic accuracy of melanoma, but only a few dermoscopic descriptors specific for thin melanomas have been identified. We defined a new descriptor, the dermoscopic island, a well-circumscribed area sh...
