Methodology Of Time-Development Analysis Of Vertebral Tumors In Ct Data

Abstract

This paper presents the methodology of time-development analysis of vertebral tumors inCT data. It including an overview of suitable features which can relevantly characterize the shape oftumor tissue. We proposed two different analysis methodologies: for compact tumors and the wholevertebral body. The test database of five lytic compact tumors containing five follow ups was created.The initial result of time-development for statistical features for compact tumors on created databaseand whole body vertebra were shown.
