Abstract
ObjectiveTo explore the improved algorithm of active contour model and apply it to the automatic segmentation of spinal CT image.Methods First, fuzzy corner algorithm based on image gray was adopted to mark the corner feature set of the subject goal. Second, the concave hull algorithm based onα shape was used to outline the initial contour which is close to the real subject goal. Finally, this initial contour was taken as the initial evolutionary conditions of active contour model to achieve image automatic segmentation.Results Different segmentation algorithms were chosen to conduct simulation experiment. Qualitative analysis showed that the proposed method retained a clear and complete image edge and details. Quantitative evaluation results indicated that the improved algorithm can get a maximal Dice similarity coefifcient and a minimal Hausdorff distance measure, and can precisely segment subject goal even in a noisy environment.Conclusion The fuzzy corner algorithm and concave hull algorithm can effectively avoid the blindness of the initial contour selection, thus the active contour model evolves more rapidly so that can acquire a more accurate subject goal contour. The proposed algorithm is a feasible for spinal CT image segmentation and is more stable and universally applicable than other algorithm even in a noisy environment, thus has greater clinical application value in terms of goal analysis.关键词
