KIDNEY GLOMERULI MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS |
| 摘要 |
Methods and systems for identifying blobs, for example kidney glomeruli, are disclosed. A raw image may be smoothed via a difference of Gaussians filter, and a Hessian analysis may be conducted on the smoothed image to mark glomeruli candidates. Exemplary candidate features are identified, such as average intensity AT, likelihood of blobness RT, and flatness ST. A clustering algorithm may be utilized to post prune the glomeruli candidates. |

1. A method of measuring glomeruli in a kidney, the method comprising:
obtaining a 3 dimensional image of a kidney; smoothing the image via a Difference of Gaussians filter; conducting a Hessian analysis on the smoothed image to mark glomeruli candidates; identifying, for each glomeruli candidate, average intensity AT, likelihood of blobness RT, and flatness ST; and executing a clustering algorithm to post prune the glomeruli candidates. |
