Abstract: Imaging is a very precious tool for diagnostic purpose and various modalities provides an excellent way for viewing the anatomy of the organs. These various imaging modalities are used for differentiating normal and diseased anatomy. For providing support to these imaging modalities computers are used for processing and analysis. This research paper provides a review of recent image segmentation algorithms for medical images. From the recent survey, the various methods and applications of medical image segmentation are discussed. The narrative of this paper is focused on different image segmentation algorithms used for computer aided diagnosis of female pelvic masses for ultrasound.
