Carotid artery plaque segmentation!
Carotid artery segmentation
Use image segmentation techniques to detect the plaque, find the boundaries and do delineating for further texture feature analysis.
Method
One app was developed with some Python programming techniques using Numpy, Scipy and Matplotlib, it is convenient to segment the region of interest.
Result
The following result shows the carotid artery plaque segmentation results, other analysis like SD (standard deviation), CV ([coefficient of variation] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_variation)), GSM (grayscale median), etc.
