A Dynamic Graph Cuts Method with Integrated Multiple Feature Maps for Segmenting Kidneys in 2D Ultrasound Images

Conclusions The proposed method achieved promising performance for segmenting kidneys in two-dimensional US images, better than segmentation methods built on any single channel of image information. This method will facilitate extraction of kidney characteristics that may predict important clinical outcomes such as progression of chronic kidney disease.
