Automatic Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm segmentation in MR images

作者：

Highlights：

• We use a spatial fuzzy C-means algorithm to detect and segment the lumen.

• We use a graph cut algorithm to segment the aortic wall.

• The detection and segmentation process is fully automatic.

• We get a 79% overlapping between our segmentation and the one from the specialist.
