Abstract

The authors put forward a new method of comparative analysis and recognition of 2D contours shape, based on an automatic search of regularities by co-occurrence matrices of contours pixels. The shape of contours of the 1st (cecum and the ascending colon) segment and the 5th (the rectum) segment of large intestine (colon) in 83 patients were analyzed. The regularities obtained were used as diagnostic signs. The results of computerized diagnosis coincided with verified clinical conclusions.
