To acquire reliable medical ultrasound images and accurately detect vascular diseases, it is inevitable to improve axial resolution and contrast facilitating clearly definition of depth and thickness of blood vessel walls.
In this paper, we study the problem of ultrasound image segmentation of kidney images. We propose a new region based active contour algorithm. The energy function of our algorithm is based on Chan-Vese energy function and the Bhattacharyya distance. In our framework, a curve is evolved to partition the image into two parts. Our algorithm minimizes the differences between each part and maximizes the...
