A new algorithm of automatic lung parenchyma segmentation based on CT images
Diao Liming, Zhang Caiming, Gao Shanshan · 2011
We present a new frame of lung parenchyma segmentation. Optimal threshold value method and the boundary tracking method are used to get rid of the background interference and segment the lung region. Then new algorithm is used for lung region boundary repairing based on the mathematical morphology method. The experimental results show the new algorithm can segment lung regions from the chest CT images automatically and accurately.
