SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY DETECTING SKIN LAYER IN AUTOMATED THREE-DIMENSIONAL BREAST ULTRASOUND IMAGE

摘要

The present invention relates to a technique for accurately detecting a skin layer by detecting the skin layer in an automated three-dimensional breast ultrasound image through a Hough line transform and skin detection line frequency equalization and correcting the detected skin layer. According to the present invention, a system for automatically detecting a skin layer in an automated three-dimensional breast ultrasound image comprises: a skin layer detection unit to detect candidate group edges of the skin layer with respect to an axial plane of an inputted automated three-dimensional breast ultrasound image, and detect the skin layer through a Hough line transform; and a skin layer correction unit to apply skin detection line frequency equalization to the detected skin layer to correct the skin layer.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2016
