Local Gaussian Distribution Fitting Boundary Image Segmentation Algorithm for Ultrasound Images in Avoiding Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injury during Thyroid Nodules Treatment

This work aimed to analyze the effect of the boundary segmentation algorithm in thyroid nodules image segmentation and the influence of its adoption in avoiding recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury during treatment of thyroid nodules. The nodule boundary was extracted aided by the local Gaussian d...
