Abstract

Abnormal regions in volumetric image sets are detected and delineated through the following technique. Noise is suppressed in the original data. The background is classified into one or more background classes. An exemplar is identified. Essentially similar structures throughout the volume are identified; a directed clustering technique has been developed for doing so. Quantitative information (lesion volume, shape, etc.) is extracted and output to database.
