%0 Journal Article %T Segmentation of Ultrasound Images Using Closest Neighbour Approach %A Prof. Tejinder Thind %A Neha Rani %J International Journal of Recent Technology and Engineering %D 2013 %I IJRTE %X As we know image segmentation is field which is uses in automated recognition of objects in medical fields, traffic analysis, face recognition and many more. In past few year as image processing goes on hike researches continuously exploring the field of image segmentation with various algorithm. Main problem of this field is overcome from over segmentation and the merging criteria for various clusters to segment an object. Medical images are difficult to segment due to low contrast and speckle noise. We are going to overcome over segmentation and will use closest element approach to merge various objects for segmentation. Also compare it with other technique of segmentation. %K closest neighbour approach %K segmentation %K US images. %U http://www.ijrte.org/attachments/File/v1i6/F0441021613.pdf
