An Improved Fuzzy Connectedness Method for Automatic Three-Dimensional Liver Vessel Segmentation in CT Images
In this paper, an improved fuzzy connectedness (FC) method was proposed for automatic three-dimensional (3D) liver vessel segmentation in computed tomography (CT) images. The vessel-enhanced image (i.e., vesselness image) was incorporated into the fuzzy affinity function of FC, rather than the inten...
