Abstract : |
An important example of bilateral symmetry in nature is the approximate bilateral symmetry exhibited by humans. Detecting and measuring bilateral symmetry in medical images should provide benefits in a clinical environment. This paper presents a method for detecting the dominant plane of bilateral symmetry in an image of arbitrary dimension and subsequently measuring the degree of bilateral symmetry in the image. By adapting the work of others, we provide a unique solution to the problem by using a simple representation of the data and a more sensitive measure of symmetry., |
