Original Abstract

This work deals with segmentation of magnetic resonance images. For better distinguishing between particular tissues, particular properties of tissues and their manifestation in different types of imaging are used. Specifically, T1 and T2 images are used. The segmentation is based on the approximation of more dimensional histograms. Since the noise distribution in MR images is close to Gaussian distribution for large signal-to-noise ratio, the approximation is done by Gaussian Mixture Model, where the number of components is determined using Bayesian Information Criterion and Elbow method.
