| 總結: | Image segmentation is an important technology used in different areas ranging from image processing to image
analysis. One of the simplest methods for image segmentation
that is widely implemented in medical images is the region
growing method. Current researches mostly focus on using the
region growing method to automatically detect the presence of tumor in MRI (Magnetic Resonance) images instead of
ultrasound images. In this paper, we present an algorithm to
automatically detect tumors in ultrasound images. Inspired by SergeBeucher and Balasubramanian’s road segmentation
algorithm, this paper will implement the road segmentation
algorithm into medical image segmentation. Results show that, the road segmentation algorithm actually works on the
segmentation of medical image. The dice coefficient was used to evaluate the accuracy of the algorithm, eventually getting a value of 0.988 ± 0.00147 as the mean and standard deviation. This value is significant, because the higher the DC value, the more accurate is the segmentation. Besides that, the DC value can use for future reference and comparison. |
