Comparative analysis of active contour random walker and watershed algorithms in segmentation of ovarian cancer

In the recent era, Image processing has been one of the most commonly used domain in the field of medical science that includes different kinds of procedures namely extraction, image gaining, detection, surgical planning and presentation which indeed helps in giving effective treatment to the patient and using all those techniques, the disease could also be detected at a early stage. When it comes to the case of ovarian cancer, it could be treated successfully when detected at an early stage.As per the following statistics, it is very much important to identify the cancer in the ovaries at the starting stage. Today, there are many algorithms that are being implemented in order to detect the cancer i.e. by segmentation. Here are the three algorithms Random Walker, Active Contour and Watershed that are being implemented in order to segment the ovarian cancer. Finally, a comparative analysis is being performed to identify which gives a better result among the three algorithms.
