How do you segment an image?

The simplest method for segmentation in image processing is the threshold method. It divides the pixels in an image by comparing the pixel's intensity with a specified value (threshold). It is useful when the required object has a higher intensity than the background (unnecessary parts).

What is image segmentation in radiology?

Segmentation is the process of assigning labels to pixels in 2D images or voxels in 3D images. Typically the effect is that the image is split up into segments, also called regions or areas. In medical imaging it is essential for quantification of outlined structures and for 3D visualization of relevant image data.

What is image segmentation function?

Image segmentation is typically used to locate objects and boundaries (lines, curves, etc.) in images. More precisely, image segmentation is the process of assigning a label to every pixel in an image such that pixels with the same label share certain characteristics.
