SEGMENTATION METHOD FOR IMAGE OF PHALANGES AND CARPAL USING RELATIVE POINT CONNECTION

摘要

PURPOSE: A segmentation method for the image of phalanges and a carpal using relative point connection are provided to precisely measure a bone age by using a relative point connection method and processing individual bones through an X-ray image. CONSTITUTION: Boundary points from which faults are removed are detected from an inputted image in a preprocess step(S200). The assembly of curves generates curve segment combination in a connection step(S300). A curve which does not satisfy conditions is removed in filtering(S400). A boundary combination of an animal bone and a carpal in combination step(S500). It is determined whether a line is a closed curve is not(S600).
