Zusammenfassung:To address problems relating to microscopic micro-vessel images of living bodies, including poor vessel continuity, blurry boundaries between vessel edges and tissue and uneven field illuminance, and this paper put forward a fuzzy-clustering level-set segmentation algorithm. By this method, pre-treated micro-vessel images were segmented by the fuzzy c-means (FCM) clustering algorithm to obtain original contours of interesting areas in images. By the evolution equations of the improved level set function, accurate segmentation of microscopic micro-vessel images was realized. This method can effectively solve the problem of manual initialization of contours, avoid the sensitivity to initialization and improve the accuracy of level-set segmentation. The experiment results indicate that compared with traditional micro-vessel image segmentation algorithms, this algorithm is of high efficiency, good noise immunity and accurate image segmentation.
