Abstract
An efficient and robust approach, which is based on wavelet transform (WT), is proposed to contour extraction for medical ultrasonic images having low signal-to-noise ratio. Furthermore, the best wavelet features for profile analysis is estimated by GAs without manual operation. No image preprocessing is needed, so computation time is fast. Experimental results to confirm the proposed algorithm are also included.
