This paper describes a new method of segmentation and identification of individual vertebrae in medical images. The final goal of the application is to determine vertebrae motion induced by their movement between two or several positions. For that, X-ray images of the spinal columns are analysed in order to extract vertebrae contours. We present a new image segmentation approach based on a preliminary...
Many of the computer vision algorithms have been posed in various forms of differential equations, derived from minimization of specific energy functionals, and the finite element representation and computation have become the de facto numerical strategies for solving these problems. However, for cases where domain mappings between numerical iterations or image frames involve large geometrical shape...
