Automatic Segmentation, Detection, and Diagnosis of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) Using Convolutional Neural Networks and Hough Circles Algorithm

ConclusionsAs a whole, a classifier using Convolutional Neural Network is designed and applied in order to detect AAA region among other abdominal regions. Then Hough Circles algorithm is applied to aorta patches for finding aorta border and measuring its diameter. Ultimately, the detected aortas will be categorized according to their diameters. All steps meet the expected results.
