摘要: Suggests some simple empirical models for first-order speckle statistics use in segmentation of cardiac ultrasound images. The are created by analyzing over 100 images obtained from commercial machines clinical settings. Four families scalable distributions compared with image data using goodness-of-fit and misclassification tests. Following the analysis, one is chosen as appropriate model. Preliminary results also reported.
