Medical Image Segmentation Techniques

The goal of this tutorial is to provide an introductory view of the Digital Image Processing (IP) area that can be used as a study guide for beginners or as basic reference for more advanced studies. The tutorial is divided into two parts: the main part is about the IP fundamentals and a complementary part discusses some application examples. The main part presents the image formation process, including a succinct description of the human eye structure and its relation to a digital camera, as well as comments about a typical IP system. The core of the tutorial is about image operations, such as color operations, spatial filtering, segmentation, scale and resolution transforms, among others. The applications part contains a number of examples, involving image segmentation, handwritten word recognition and content-based image retrieval.
