Abstract

In this paper, a shape description methodology, introduced by Jakubowski [6] is applied to hand radiographs interpretation, in order to recognize bones borders shapes in the fingers regions. It is shown that the classical approach can be used only for preliminary analysis. Therefore, the improved method, based on fuzzy approach, is considered.
