Fractal Dimension as a Symmetry Measure in 3D Brain MRI Analysis
Abstract
In brain image analysis, the automatic identification of symmetry plane has various applications. This paper presents a new method that uses the concept of fractal dimension as a quantitative measure for identifying symmetry plane in three-dimensional (3D) brain magnetic resonance (MR) images. The method was tested on various 3D MRI datasets. Robust and accurate results were obtained in our experiments
