Paper Title
Finding Of Cysts In Therapeutic Ultrasound Images Of Ovary

Abstract
It is important to know about the ovarian status for fertility related treatments. Ultrasound imaging of ovaries gives the important information about shape, position, size, no of follicles and presence of cysts etc. In this paper a method is proposed to identify whether the ovary is normal or cystic ovary. In preprocessing stage the Gaussian low pass filter is applied for image denoising. Region based active contour without edges is used for the segmentation, then morphological operations are applied for removing unwanted regions. The geometrical features extracted from the segmented image are applied for the k-NN classifier to classify whether the image is normal ovary or cystic ovary.
