Extraction of Layers of Vertebrate Retina from Optical Coherence Tomography Images by using Active Contour Model with Structuring Elements
Hirosato Mikami, Hayato Konishi, Yuji Sakamoto (Hokkaido Univ.) MBE2009-16
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Optical Coherence Tomography images (OCT) have problems such as speckle noise and shadowing．Therefore，it is difficult for general segmentation algorithms to extract layers of vertebrate retina．To solve this problem，a method which was contour extraction using active contour model with struturing elements in three-dimensional space was proposed．In this paper，we perform experiments to apply the method to OCT and obtain extraction accuracy of more than 99.5\%\ .
