Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a method for acquiring a retina structure from an optical coherence tomographic image and a system thereof. The method comprises: calculating a region of interest (ROI) image of a source image; performing a Gaussian filtering of the ROI image; calculating a first estimated boundary position of a first layer boundary and a second estimated boundary position of a second layer boundary using a multi-resolution method; refining the first layer boundary and the second layer boundary respectively using a simplified active contour model according to the first estimated boundary position and the second estimated boundary position, to obtain a first initial boundary position of the first layer boundary and a second initial boundary position of the second layer boundary; smoothing the first initial boundary position and the second initial boundary position using a filtering method; acquiring segmentation positions of rest layer boundaries in the ROI image according to a segmented position of the first layer boundary and a segmented position of the second layer boundary. The present disclosure can improve the calculation speed and reduce the calculation complexity while maintaining high location accuracy.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a method and apparatus for determining characteristics of cerebral ischemia based on magnetic resonance diffusion weighted imaging, so as to provide a more objective basis for determining whether an acute cerebral ischemia patient should be treated with thrombolysis. The method comprises: determining a cerebral ischemia region of a patient based on magnetic resonance diffusion weighted imaging of the patient, wherein the cerebral ischemia region comprises a core region and a transition region; determining an apparent diffusion coefficient ADC characteristic parameter ADCr in a region with high DWI values in the magnetic resonance diffusion weighted imaging according to diffusion weighted image DWI values in the core region and transition region; and judging whether ADC values in the region with high DWI values and the region with high DWI values are mismatched according to the ADC characteristic parameter ADCr. The method according to embodiments of the present invention provides a more scientific and objective basis for making a decision on whether the acute cerebral ischemia patient should be treated with thrombolysis, thereby improving a cure rate of the cerebral ischemia patient.
