Medical Image Segmentation by More Sensitive Adaptive Thresholding

Abstract: To make 3D surface model from medical images, segmentation is essential process. And, in the case that the HU(Hounsfield Unit) values of the object to be segmented varies in the image, adaptive thresholding segmentation is very efficient segmentation method. But in many cases, it shows insufficient sensitivity of segmentation that weak(dim) objects are not segmented. This problem is caused mainly by strong(bright) object nearby the weak object because adaptive thresholding makes high threshold due to strong ob… Show more

“…To solve this problem, we have supplemented the adaptive segmentation algorithm. It divides the region of interest primarily using the adaptive threshold method and applies the morphology method to the divided regions [6]. In this method, thin-shaped areas with small brightness values are selected and made into connected objects.…”

“…Global threshold segmentation cannot consider all pixels in the image, making it challenging to accurately separate the targets from the background. To improve the real-time performance of detection, a fast adaptive thresholding segmentation algorithm is adopted [19] . This algorithm traverses the entire image to calculate the average grayscale value of the last s pixels.…”

“…Compared to fixed threshold, adaptive threshold is more adaptive application-wise due to its flexible threshold setting. Therefore, the application of threshold method is wide; ranging from medical image segmentation [4], computer-aided diagnosis [5] to image denoising [6].…”
