Multi-Atlas Based Methods in Brain MR Image Segmentation
Publication date: June 2019Source: Chinese Medical Sciences Journal, Volume 34, Issue 2Author(s): Liang Sun, Li Zhang, Daoqiang ZhangAbstractBrain region-of-interesting (ROI) segmentation is an important prerequisite step for many computer-aid brain disease analyses. However, the human brain has the complicated anatomical structure. Meanwhile, the brain MR images often suffer from the low intensity contrast around the boundary of ROIs, large inter-subject variance and large inner-subject variance. To address these issues, many multi-atlas based segmentation methods are proposed for brain ROI segmentation in the last decade...
