Rayleigh segmentation of the endocardium in ultrasound images
In this paper we present the Coupled Active Contours (CAC) model, which is applied to segmentation of the endocardium in ultrasonic images assuming Rayleigh distributed intensitie...

Evaluation of a Cardiac Ultrasound Segmentation Algorithm Using a Phantom
This paper evaluates the performance of a level set algorithm for segmenting the endocardium in short-axis ultrasound images. The evaluation is carried out using an anthropomorphic...

Tunnelling Descent: A New Algorithm for Active Contour Segmentation of Ultrasound Images
The presence of speckle in ultrasound images makes it hard to segment them using active contours. Speckle causes the energy function of the active contours to have many local minim...

Contour-based hidden Markov model to segment 2D ultrasound images
The segmentation of ultrasound images is challenging due to the difficulty of appropriate modeling of their appearance variations including speckle as well as signal dropout. We ...

Segmentation of fetal 3D ultrasound based on statistical prior and deformable model
A statistical variational framework is proposed for the fetus and uterus segmentation in ultrasound images. The Rayleigh and exponential distributions are used to model the pixel ...
