摘要：
Objective: Authors propose a semi-automatic segmentation algorithm for three-dimensional prostate boundary detection from trans-rectal ultrasound images. As a part of brachytherapy treatment with seeds for early stage prostate cancer, a patient’s prostate is scanned using a trans-rectal ultrasound probe, its boundary is manually outlined, and its volume is estimated for dosimetry purposes. Proposed algorithm requires a reduced amount of radiologist’s input, and thus speeds up the surgical procedure.
