Paper Abstract

Image segmentation is one of the most difficult problems in multidimensional reconstruction of medical ultrasonic images. A new method for segmentation of medical ultrasonic images based on fractal dimension Lacunarity is presented in this paper. As fractal features have drawbacks of less number and great redundancy, we developed a method to extend the features combining with micromasks. Experimental results show that our method can enhance the description ability of fractal features and segment the images efficiently.
