Figure 5

Sample Result. The original image is in the upper left corner. The image in the upper right corner is the image after cropping it to the region in which bone is found and histogram equalization. In the lower left corner is the image after Speckle Reducing Anisotropic Diffusion (SRAD) filtering. In the lower right corner are results of segmentation. It can be noticed that the detected bone contour and shape are true to the actual bone contour and size. The method accentuates the appearance of bone regions that are faded in the current slice of the CT scan but more pronounced in the adjacent slices - observe the center region of the segmentation result.
