Considering the survival rate of small animals and the continuity of the experiments,high-dose X-ray shooting process is not suitable for the small animals in computed tomography(CT)experiments.But the low-dose process results with images might be po...
PURPOSE: The authors are developing a computerized system for bladder segmentation in CT urography (CTU) as a critical component for computer-aided detection of bladder cancer.
Digital reconstruction of neuronal cell morphology is an important step toward understanding the functionality of neuronal networks. Neurons are tree-like structures whose description depends critically on the junctions and terminations, collectively...
PURPOSE: In an attempt to overcome several hurdles that exist in organ segmentation approaches, the authors previously described a general automatic anatomy recognition (AAR) methodology for segmenting all major organs in multiple body regions body-w...
PURPOSE: Automatic brain image labeling is highly demanded in the field of medical image analysis. Multiatlas-based approaches are widely used due to their simplicity and robustness in applications. Also, random forest technique is recognized as an e...
