Abstract: An apparatus for detecting an error in a contour of a lesion includes an extracting unit configured to extract a contour of a lesion in each of a plurality of two-dimensional image frames that form a three-dimensional image, and an error determining unit configured to determine a presence or an absence of an error in a contour of a lesion in a target image frame of the two-dimensional image frames based on estimation information about the lesion in the target image frame and/or an energy value that corresponds to the contour of the lesion in the target image frame.

Abstract: A computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) method includes extracting a lesion feature value of a lesion feature of a lesion from a captured lesion image; receiving additional information; and diagnosing the lesion based on a combination of the extracted lesion feature value and the received additional information.

Abstract: An apparatus for extracting a candidate image frame includes a generating unit configured to generate at least one lesion value that represents a characteristic of a lesion included in each of a plurality of 2-dimensional image frames that form a 3-dimensional image, and an extracting unit configured to extract, from the image frames, at least one candidate image frame usable for correcting a boundary of the lesion based on the at least one lesion value.

Abstract: There is provided an image segmentation apparatus and related method for enhancing accuracy of image segmentation based on user interaction. The image segmentation apparatus including an interface configured to, in response to an image displayed on the interface, receive information about the image from a user and a segmenter configured to segment the contour of a region of interest (ROI) in the image based on the information.
