基于测地线投票的CT图像肺裂检测
Detection of pulmonary fissure in CT image based on geodesic voting
摘要
Abstract
Pulmonary fissure detection in CT image plays a key role for early disease examination and later treatment. However, pulmonary fissures in 2D image are soft tissues which appear as thin, weak and varying structures, often undu-lating planar surfaces with blurred boundaries. This is further complicated by presence of surrounding vessels and other structures. To solve these problems, a new regional iteration and back-tracking algorithm based on geodesic voting is pro-posed. The main procedure is as follows:A geodesic distance fieldis constructed with the fast marching method and a histogram peak finding method is used to locate the fissure branch. Then fissure branches are detected iteratively with a regionback-tracking method. The topological structure with fine branches is preserved while the noise is simultaneously suppressed. The experiment results show that the proposed method is less sensitive to noise with a good fault tolerance performance. It also improves the accuracy and computation efficiency of pulmonary fissure detection compared with the conventional global back-tracking methods.关键词
