Performance Analysis of Medical Image Segmentation using Hybrid Technique

The exploitation of medical images is done by several physical principals or modalities such as X-ray, CT, PET, MRI, etc. The essential task of Image segmentation is done on the images acquired from these modalities. This paper focuses on the segmentation using hybrid technique. The concatenation of Wavelets, Active contours and fuzzy c means has been done so as to attain efficient segmented image. Later on the MSE (mean square error) and PSNR (peak signal to noise ratio) are calculated to compare the quality of original image and segmented image.
