Title
MRI Skull Bone Lesion Segmentation Using Distance Based Watershed Segmentation.
Abstract
The objective of separating touching objects in an image is a very difficult task. The task is all the more difficult when the touching objects are healthy tissues and unhealthy tissues of lesions in human brain. A gray level MR image may be considered as a topographic relief and thus Watershed segmentation is used. Watershed refers to a ridge that divides areas drained by different river systems. A catchment basin is interpreted as a geographical area draining into a river or reservoir. The concept of watershed and catchment basins are used for analyzing biological tissues. An MR image segmentation method is developed using Distance and Watershed Transforms.
