3D Shared Matting Method for Directly Extracting Standard Organ Models from Human Body Color Volume Image

Background: In some medical applications (e.g., virtual surgery), standard human organ models are very important and useful. Now that real human body slice image sets have been collected by several countries, it is possible to obtain real standard organ models. Introduction: Understanding how to abandon the traditional model construction method of Photoshop sketching slice by slice and directly extracting 3D models from volume images has been an interesting and challenging issue. In this paper, a 3D color volume image matting method has been proposed to segment human body organ models. Methods: First, the scope of the known area will be expanded by means of propagation. Next, neighborhood sampling to find the best sampling for voxels in an unknown region will be performed and then the preliminary opacity using the sampling results will be calculated. Results: The final result will be obtained by applying local smoothing to the image. Conclusion: From the experimental results, it has been observed that our method is effective for real standard organ model extraction.
