Accurate segmentation of liver from abdominal CT scans is critical for computer-assisted diagnosis and therapy. Despite many years research, automatic remains a challenging task. In this paper, novel method was proposed delineation on volume images using supervoxel-based graph cuts. To extract the interest (VOI), region abdomen firstly determined based maximum intensity projection (MIP) thresholding methods. Then, patient-specific VOI extracted by histogram-based adaptive morphological...

Three-dimensional (3D) liver tumor segmentation from Computed Tomography (CT) images is a prerequisite for computer-aided diagnosis, treatment planning, and monitoring of cancer. Despite many years research, 3D remains challenging task. In this paper, an efficient semiautomatic method was proposed in CT volumes based on improved fuzzy C -means (FCM) graph cuts. With single seed point, the volume interest (VOI) extracted using confidence connected region growing algorithm to reduce...

Computerized tumor segmentation on breast ultrasound (BUS) images remains a challenging task. In this paper, we proposed new method for semi-automatic BUS using Gaussian filtering, histogram equalization, mean shift, and graph cuts. The only interaction required was to select two diagonal points determine region of interest (ROI) an input image. ROI image shrunken by factor 2 bicubic interpolation reduce computation time. smoothed filter then contrast-enhanced equalization. Next, the...

Objective . The fast fixed-point algorithm for independent component analysis (FastICA) has been widely used in fetal electrocardiogram (ECG) extraction. However, the FastICA is sensitive to initial weight vector, which affects convergence of algorithm. In order solve this problem, an improved method was proposed extract ECG. Methods First, maternal abdominal mixed signal centralized and whitened, overrelaxation factor incorporated into Newton’s iterative process vector randomly generated....

Fetal electrocardiogram (FECG) signals directly reflect the electrical activity of fetal heart, enabling assessment cardiac health. To effectively separate and extract FECG from maternal abdominal (ECG) signals, this study proposed a W-shaped parallel network, termed Attention R2W-Net, which consisted two R2U-Nets. In encoder decoder, recurrent residual modules were used to replace feedforward convolutional layers, significantly enhancing feature representation improving noise suppression....

The analysis of the backscattered statistics using Nakagami parameter is an emerging ultrasound technique for assessing hepatic steatosis and fibrosis. Previous studies indicated that echo amplitude distribution a normal liver follows Rayleigh (the m close to 1). However, different frequencies may change livers. This study explored frequency dependence in human livers then discussed sources scattering liver. A total 30 healthy participants were enrolled undergo standard care examination on...
