A method framework of semi-automatic knee bone segmentation and reconstruction from computed tomography (CT) images.

Background: Accurate delineation of knee bone boundaries is crucial for computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) and effective treatment planning in knee diseases. Current methods often struggle with precise segmentation due to the knee joint's complexity, which includes intricate bone structures and overlapping soft tissues. These challenges are further complicated by variations in patient anatomy and image quality, highlighting the need for improved techniques.

A method framework of automatic localization and quantitative segmentation for the cavum septum pellucidum complex and the cerebellar vermis in fetal brain ultrasound images.

Background: Early detection of central nervous system (CNS) anomalies in human embryos through prenatal screening is crucial for timely intervention and improved patient outcomes. Fetal brain mid-sagittal ultrasound images (FBMUIs) play a pivotal role as a diagnostic tool for detecting structural abnormalities. However, the automatic localization and quantitative segmentation of complex anatomical structures such as the corpus callosum-cavum septum pellucidum complex (CCC) and cerebellar vermis (CV) in FBMUIs present significant challenges.
