A method of processing an image containing at least one object boundary, the method comprising producing a contour map of the image in which contours divide the image into zones and merging zones if their statistical properties of their pixels sufficiently match those of the pixels expected of an object that is known or thought to be present in the image. The invention extends to corresponding apparatus. The image may be a medical image, for example an X- ray of a joint.
La présente invention concerne un procédé de traitement d~une image contenant au moins une limite d~objet, le procédé comprenant la production d~une carte des profils de l~image dans laquelle des profils divisent l~image en zones et en zones se joignant si les propriétés statistiques de leurs pixels correspondent suffisamment à celles des pixels prévus d'un objet qui est connu ou dont on pense qu'il est présent dans l'image. L~invention englobe un appareil correspondant. L~image peut être une image médicale, par exemple une image à rayons X d~une articulation.
