摘要
En 中文
Medical images have an undeniably integral role in the process of diagnosing and treating of a very large number of ailments. Processing such images (for different purposes) can significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of this process. The first step in many medical image processing applications is segmentation, which is used to extract the Region of Interest (ROI) from a given image. Due to its effectiveness, a very popular segmentation algorithm is the Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) algorithm. However, FCM takes a long processing time especially for 3D model. This problem can be solved by utilizing parallel programming using Graphics Processing Unit (GPU). In this paper, a hybrid parallel implementation of FCM for extracting volume object from medical DICOM files has been proposed. The proposed algorithm improves the performance 5x compared with the sequential version.
