Implementation of three different segmentation techniques for quantitative evaluation of IMT in B-mode ultrasound common carotid artery images

Effect of despeckling filters on the segmentation of ultrasound common carotid artery images

“…In this work, to achieve optimization the parameter's values selected as per the previous study [ 26 ] are: λ = 5, α = 10.5, ε = 1.5, μ = 0.04, σ = 1.5, C o = 3. The number of iteration ( ) is computed automatically by utilizing intensity information within the ROI.…”
