Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of image processing, in particular to a method and device for extracting intracranial brain tissue. Background technique
[0002] In preparation for radiation therapy, doctors use medical images of the patient to calculate the radiation path and dose used during radiation therapy. During this process, doctors need to outline some important organs in medical images so that they can avoid radiation exposure during radiotherapy or reduce the radiation dose they receive. Especially for head CT images, the internal structure of the cranial cavity is often an area of interest for doctors. Intracranial brain tissue includes three large blocks of nerve fibers: the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainstem, which are closely related to human intellectual activities and are important areas that must be protected during radiotherapy. Therefore, when segmenting head CT images, how to quickly and accurately extract intracranial brai...
