Segmentation of the kidney from the renal perfusion MR image sequences
Jína, Miroslav ; Walek, Petr (referee) ; Malínský, Miloš (advisor)
This master’s thesis deals with kidney segmentation in perfusion magnetic resonance image sequences. Kidney segmentation is carry out by a few methods such as regionbased techniques, deformable models, specimen-based methods, edge-oriented methods etc. The universal algorithm for patient kidney segmentation still does not exist. Proposed method is an active contour Snake, which is created in programming environment MatLab. Final contours are quantitatively and visually compared to manual kidney segmentation.
Interactive Medical Image Segmentation
Olša, Martin ; Kršek, Přemysl (referee) ; Španěl, Michal (advisor)
This work deals with a fast level-set approach for segmentation of anatomical structures in volumetric medical images. The fast level-set method evolves a closed 3D surface in time propagating the surface form an initial position. The major contribution of this work is the implementation of the level-set method and construction of an interactive tool for segmentation of 3D medical data using this method. The tool is able to interactively change parameters of the evolution during the segmentation process itself. Due to the nature of level-set method, the evolution process can be stopped at any time, or backtracked and restarted from any previous step with a different configuration.
Analysis of volumetric change of Hippocampus caused by Alzheimer's disease
Pham, Minh Tuan ; Harabiš, Vratislav (referee) ; Walek, Petr (advisor)
Interest in hippocampus increased sharply after his significance in the process of learning and retention of information was published. In particular, considerable interest was in its volume changes and their effect on Alzheimer’s disease. Understanding the structure and function hippocampus would contribute to a more accurate diagnosis of this disease. In this work was created a method of hippocampal segmentation using active contours. With its help, the data composed of both healthy and a diseased patients was segmented and the results were then statistically analyzed using statistical methods such as Kruskal-Walis test, Mann-Whitney test. The level of significance given by results of analysis supports alternative hypothesis that attaches significance of the difference in volume of the hippocampus between studied groups.
