Segmentation and characterization of masses in breast ultrasound images using active contour
The active contour or Snake is a computer generated curve, used to trace boundaries of images. This paper presents the application of Snake for the segmentation of masses on breast ultrasound images and the characterization of the segmented masses as malignant or benign. Initially, the Balloon Snake...
