摘要
This paper presents a new method for detection of edges in digital angiographic images. It is found that variances of local regions across edges of images are statistically different from that of those where no edge is crossed. This difference can be utilized for the detection of edges of angiographic images. An algorithm based on local variance is proposed. As a result, the edge-detection algorithm is not sensitive to noise and low-level textures of images. A computer program based on the new algorithm has been developed and used by several hospitals.
