Abstract :
Knee joint is one of the frequently injured or damaged components of the human motion system. This paper provides an overview of the current segmentation techniques for knee joint from medical imaging, such as computerized tomography (CT) and MR (magnetic resonance). Segmentation techniques, strategies and system for the knee joint segmentation are discussed, followed by the review of how the different segmentation methods are used in specific structures. Discussions of the knee joint segmentation and future work are presented.
