Deformable models, including parametric deformable models andgeometric deformable models, have been widely used forsegmenting and identifying anatomic structures in medical imageanalysis. This chapter discusses medical image segmentationbased on deformable models and its applications. We first studyseveral issues and methods related to medical image segmentationand then review deformable models in detail. Three applicationsin different medical fields are introduced: tongue imagesegmentation in Chinese medicine, cerebral cortex segmentationin MR images, and cardiac valve segmentation inechocardiographic sequences.
