Skull Fractures Detection by Finite Element Method

In this paper an algorithm is developed that allows by means of the method of finite element to detect skull fractures. We intend the theoretical foundation that sustains when segmenting cranial images, these methods based on the method of finite element (FEM), for their initials in English, that allows us to detect fractures in the images. With the development of this paper the efficiency of the method of finite element is shown in the segmentation of images. Likewise, it is made notice the importance that up to now have acquired in the areas of segmentation of images due to their capacity to solve numeric methods. In turn, continuity is given to that the investigation groups that develop projects related with the analysis of images prescribe, continue to the so much of the area of finite element and they follow them incorporating in their algorithms, mainly in concerning tasks to the theory analysis of images and their applications.
