Description

Liver tissue segmentation in microscopic images using fusion color space and multiscale morphological reconstruction

Abstract

In this project, we propose a new method for the segmentation of digital two-dimensional color liver tissue images acquired by an optical microscope from histological segments of the liver of a hamster. The sections are acquired by cutting real livers of amoebic liver abscesses. This work is part of a medical research project on studying the process of amoebiasis, which harms the human liver, and is an important and dangerous disease. The new method is based on a fusion of various results of the application of color histogram and multi-scale morphological filter, which uses size and color characteristics. As a result, the images are segmented into four classes: the liver cell nuclei, the cytoplasm, stained cells, and the background. For the evaluation and for testing the reliability of the proposed segmentation algorithm, we use a set of real 2D color images of a hamster’s liver.
