  • Abstract
    For lung tissue adhesion of the situation in the lung CT images, based on the classical watershed algorithm, this introduce line-encoded ideology, use contour tracing method to determine adhesion region segmentation points, according to segment code to get the split line, thus separating the adhesion region. Experimental results show that this method will be effective in the lung adhesion region segmentation, and the well to prevent the over-segmentation phenomenon.
