Computed Tomography Image Analysis of Body Fat Based on Multi-Image Information

Body fat assessment is required as part of an objective health assessment, both for nonobese and obese people. Image-based body fat assessment will enable faster diagnosis. Body fat analysis that accounts for age and sex will help in both diagnosis and correlating diseases and fat distribution. Afte...

description Body fat assessment is required as part of an objective health assessment, both for nonobese and obese people. Image-based body fat assessment will enable faster diagnosis. Body fat analysis that accounts for age and sex will help in both diagnosis and correlating diseases and fat distribution. After evaluating computed tomography imaging algorithms to identify and segment human abdominal and subcutaneous fat, we present an improved region growing scale-invariant feature transform algorithm. It applies Naive Bayes image thresholding for key point selection and image matching. This method enables rapid and accurate comparison and matching of images from multiple databases and improves the efficiency of image processing.
