Abstract:
This paper shows a method for extracting bronchus region from 3D chest CT images. Several research groups have proposed methods for extracting bronchus regions by using region growing algorithm. However, these methods do not work well in the case that tumors divide the bronchus region into several parts. Therefore, this study proposes a method that can extract the bronchus region in such cases using local intensity structure analysis, CT value distribution and shape features for extracting the b...     »
