Abstract

The image segmentation of port wine stains (PWS) lesions is of great significance to assess PDT treatment outcomes. However, it mainly depends on the manual division of doctors at present, which is time-consuming and laborious. Therefore, it is urgent and necessary to explore an efficient and accurate automatic extraction method for PWS lesion images. A two-way perceived color difference saliency algorithm (TPCS) for PWS lesion extraction is proposed to improve the efficiency and accuracy, and is compared with other image segmentation algorithms. The proposed algorithm shows the best performance with 88.91% accuracy and 96.36% sensitivity over 34 test images of PWS lesions.
