Dermoscopy is one of the major imaging modalities used in the diagnosis of melanoma and other pigmented skin lesions. Due to the difficulty and subjectivity of human interpretation, automated analysis of dermoscopy images has become an…
The main objective of this project is to segment different breast ultrasound images to find out lesion area by discarding the low contrast regions as well as the inherent speckle noise. The proposed method consists of three stages (removing…
The performance of image segmentation highly relies on the original inputting image. When the image is contaminated by some noises or blurs, we can not obtain the efficient segmentation result by using direct segmentation methods. In order…
This paper presents an efficient automatic color image segmentation method using a seeded region growing and merging method based on square elemental regions. Our segmentation method consists of the three steps: generating seed regions,…
Mammography is the primary imaging modality used for early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer. X-ray mammogram analysis mainly refers to the localization of suspicious regions of interest followed by segmentation, towards further…
Automatic segmentation of anatomical structures is critical in medical image analysis, aiding diagnostics and treatment planning. Skin segmentation plays a key role in registering and visualising multimodal imaging data. 3D skin…
Chromosome enumeration is an essential but tedious procedure in karyotyping analysis. To automate the enumeration process, we develop a chromosome enumeration framework, DeepACEv2, based on the region based object detection scheme. The…
An automated method to detect and analyze the melanoma is presented to improve diagnosis which will leads to the exact treatment. Image processing techniques such as segmentation, feature descriptors and classification models are involved…
Segmentation of overlapping convex objects has various applications, for example, in nanoparticles and cell imaging. Often the segmentation method has to rely purely on edges between the background and foreground making the analyzed images…
Breast cancer is one of the most common and prevalent type of cancer that mainly affects the women population. chances of effective treatment increases with early diagnosis. Mammography is considered one of the effective and proven…
The presented algorithms for segmentation and tracking follow a 3-step approach where we detect, track and finally segment nuclei. In the preprocessing phase, we detect centroids of the cell nuclei using a convolutional neural network (CNN)…
Karyotyping is an important procedure to assess the possible existence of chromosomal abnormalities. However, because of the non-rigid nature, chromosomes are usually heavily curved in microscopic images and such deformed shapes hinder the…
The histogram of an image is the accurate graphical representation of the numerical grayscale distribution and it is also an estimate of the probability distribution of image pixels. Therefore, histogram has been widely adopted to calculate…
In this work it is proposed a medical image segmentation pipeline for accurate bone segmentation from CT imaging. It is a two-step methodology, with a pre-segmentation step and a segmentation refinement step. First, the user performs a…
Segmentation is often an essential intermediate step in image analysis. A volume segmentation characterizes the underlying volume image in terms of geometric information--segments, faces between segments, curves in which several faces…
Segmentation is a crucial task in the medical imaging field and is often an important primary step or even a prerequisite to the analysis of medical volumes. Yet treatments such as surgery complicate the accurate delineation of regions of…
