Volume delineation by fusion of fuzzy sets obtained from multiplanar tomographic images.

Techniques of three-dimensional (3-D) volume delineation from tomographic medical imaging are usually based on 2-D contour definition. For a given structure, several different contours can be obtained depending on the segmentation method used or the user's choice. The goal of this work is to de...
