Diagnosis is a critical preventive step in Coronavirus research which has similar manifestations with other types of pneumonia. CT scans and X-rays play an important role in that direction. However, processing chest CT images and using them to accurately diagnose COVID-19 is a computationally expensive task.

In that scheme, the leaf boundary points are fitted in a continuous contour using Radial Basis Function Neural Networks (RBFNN) to calculate the centroid of the leaf shape. Afterwards, the distances between predetermined points and the centroid were computed and normalized.

The segmentation of the lesion plays a core role in diagnosis and monitoring of multiple sclerosis (MS). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most frequent image modality used to evaluate such lesions. Because of the massive amount of data, manual segmentation cannot be achieved within a sensible time that restricts the usage of accurate quantitative measurement in clinical practice.
