This study presents a fabric level set method for contour extraction in medical images using novel
coarse-to-fine level set scheme. Medical image segmentation is an atomic challenge for many researchers. The
challenges are arisen due to the poor image contrast and artifacts that result in diffuse organ/tissue boundaries.
Medical images are fused by using Brovey transform fusion to increase the contrast of the image. The discrete
wavelet transform is utilized for extracting the medical images. Coarse-to-fine level set scheme is used for
perfect segmentation. Extensive experiments have been executed on Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) and
Computed Tomography Images (CRI) to validate the proposed algorithm.
Key words: Brovey transform fusion , coarse-to-fine level set, contour extraction, CRI, discrete wavelet transform , homogeneity metric, MRI
