Artery Wall Detection Based on Image Profile Classification
Original language description
In this article we propose a new method for the accurate locating of points on the arterial wall in ultrasound images. The system takes as an input an ultrasound image that contains the common carotid artery, this image is the outcome of an object detector. The proposed method suggests a way to detect points on the arterial wall in the transverse section of the common carotid artery, because knowing the locus of these points is very essential in constructing the initial contour for a more detailed segmentation using Active contour algorithms. The detection of a circular object may seem a classic task in image processing, but ultrasound images have special characteristics that makes it a harder task which needs a different type of processing. The systemuses a Support Vector Machine classifier to classify image profiles in different positions in the image, in order to recognize the points on the arterial wall. This is an initial step towards the analysis of cardiac diseases, or for trac
