Detection of pulmonary fissure in CT image based on geodesic voting. . j Computer Engineering and Applications, 2017, 53 （24 ）：191-195. 机 a 算 e Abstract ：Pulmonary fissure detection in CT image plays a key role for early disease examination and later treatment. c . However, pulmonary fissures in 2D image are soft tissues which appear as thin, weak and varying structures, often undu- 计 w lating planar surfaces with blurred boundaries. This is further complicated by presence of surrounding vessels and other structures. To solve these problems, a new regional iteration and back-tracking algorithm based on geodesic voting is pro- w posed. The main procedure is as follows ：A geodesic distance fieldis constructed with the fast marching method and a w histogram peak finding method is used to locate the fissure branch. Then fissure branches are detected iteratively with a regionback-tracking method. The topological structure with fine branches is preserved while the noise is simultaneously suppressed. The experiment results show that the proposed method is less sensitive to noise with a good fault tolerance performance. It also improves the accuracy and computation efficiency of pulmonary fissure detect
