Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

Ultrasound provides the physical capabilities for a fast and save disease diagnosis in various medical scenarios including renal exams and patient trauma assessment. However, the experience of the ultrasound operator is the key element in performing ultrasound diagnosis. Thus, we like to introduce our automatic kidney detection and segmentation algorithm for 3D ultrasound. The approach utilizes basic kidney shape information to detect the kidney position. Following, the Level Set algorithm is applied to segment the detection result. In combination this method may help physicians and inexperienced trainees to achieve kidney detection and segmentation for diagnostic purposes.
