Abstract

The invention discloses an inner-ear three-dimensional level set segmentation method based on a statistical shape model. The method comprises the following steps of step1, establishing the statisticalshape model of an inner ear; step2, through a rigid registration method from volume data to volume data, acquiring an area of interest of the inner ear, and then through the rigid registration methodfrom the model to the volume data, registering an average shape model of the statistical shape model to the area of interest of the inner ear, and acquiring an initial surface contour of the inner ear; and step3, using the three-dimensional level set segmentation method based on a threshold area, carrying out level set evolution and acquiring a target contour surface, and then combining originalbrain MRI volume data so as to finally calculate and acquire a needed inner ear contour. In the invention, a real inner ear boundary can be rapidly converged; a complexity of the method is lower thana method for acquiring an initial contour through combination of various pre-segmentation methods; and the method possesses high robustness and accuracy during a inner ear segmentation process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of digital image processing, in particular to a three-dimensional level set segmentation method of the inner ear based on a statistical shape model. Background technique [0002] Inner ear organ segmentation is an important part of preoperative imaging evaluation for cochlear implant surgery, and it is also a necessary means for accurate measurement of inner ear structure. Inner ear organ segmentation can provide reliable anatomical information before surgery, provide a basis for the formulation of ear microsurgery plans, and make the diagnosis and treatment of ear microsurgery diseases more scientific and intuitive. At the same time, the inner ear model based on standard spatial coordinates It is of great significance for theoretical research and clinical diagnosis of otolithiasis. [0003] As mentioned above, 3D segmentation of the inner ear is of high value for clinical research and applications. Howeve...
