This study addresses the challenge of segmenting medical images (CT/MRI) by using an anatomical knowledge base. This knowledge-based segmentation approach aims to improve structure recognition in scans.

Area of Science:

  • Medical image analysis
  • Computer vision
  • Anatomical modeling

Background:

  • Medical image segmentation (CT/MRI) is challenging due to anatomical variability and scanner differences.
  • Accurate segmentation is crucial for diagnosis and treatment planning.
  • Existing methods struggle with the inherent complexities of medical imaging data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel knowledge-based segmentation approach for medical images.
  • To leverage anatomical knowledge to enhance the accuracy of structure recognition in CT and MRI scans.
  • To overcome limitations of traditional segmentation techniques.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of a knowledge-based segmentation framework.
  • Integration of an anatomical knowledge base into the segmentation pipeline.
