  • Abstract
Since hippocampal volume measurement is often used in studying Alzheimer’s disease to assess disease progression, automatic hippocampus segmentation is an important task in clinical applications. However, it is a challenging task due to its small size, complex shape, fuzzy boundaries, partial volume effects, and anatomical variability. In this paper we propose a new segmentation method to segment the hippocampus from brain MRI images automatically.This proposed method presents a new region-based signed pressure force function, which can efficiently stop the contours at weak boundary. Experimental results show that the model can fast and effectively segment the intensity inhomogeneous images.
