Abstract

In this paper, we compare our proposed method with previous methods for the volumetric image segmentation using level set. In order to obtain an exact segmentation, the region and boundary information of image object are used in our proposed speed function. The boundary information is defined by the gradient vector flow obtained from the gradient images and the region information is defined by Gaussian distribution information of pixel intensity in a region-of-interest for image segmentation. Also the regular term is used to remove the noise around surface. We show various experimental results of real medical volume images to verify the superiority of proposed method.
