Multiple Energy Function Active Contours Applied to Ct and Mr Images

The following section gives a brief overview of the Computer Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging modalities. This is followed by a section introducing active contour models, or snakes. The adopted active contour model is then detailed, followed by a breakdown of the work undertaken in developing this for CT and MR images. The document finishes with a few conclusions that can be drawn from our work including what future work on active contour models for these image domains may be useful.
