Abstract

This paper proposed a region-based curve control function to detect the brain ventricle area by utilizing a geodesic active contour model. This is based on the average brightness of the brain ventricle area which is brighter in MRI images. Compared numerically by using various types of measurements, the proposed method can detect the brain ventricle area better than the existing methods.
