Extraction of chondromalacia knee cartilage using multi slice thresholding method
Original language description
The paper deals with design of segmentation method for extraction special types of pathological changes of knee cartilage. Those changes are called chondromalacia of knee cartilage. These pathological changes unfavorable influence cartilage's surface and significantly deteriorate their structure. Knee cartilage is typically investigated by Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MRI is very effective method which is able to differentiate individual knee structures. On the other hand some tiny tissue's changes are not clearly recognizable because MRI generates image outputs in shade gray levels. Chondromalacia in early stage is manifested by weak contrast compared to its surroundings and therefore it is very complicated to recognize and locate spots where this change is. The proposed segmentation method is able to precisely differentiate individual cartilage structures and perform extraction of cartilage structure and adjacent pathological changes. Furthermore the proposed segmentation method transform MRI data to contrasting color map which is more effective approach then gray shade levels. The proposed algorithm is being tested on sample 30 patient's records and results are discussed with radiological experts.
