Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Abstract X-ray CT images have been widely used in clinical diagnosis in recent years. Due to the cost of CT image interpretations, the development of computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system is expected. Automated recognition and registration of human structures are required as an important processing step of a CAD system and can be expected to detecting the abnormalities by referring to the normal human body. During the recognition and registration processes, the stable landmark determinations are required. Skeleton is expected to be used as the ideal landmark because it is associated with human organs. We are developing a CAD system that can recognize the skeletal structures automatically from CT images. In this paper, we propose a scheme for automated recognition of the skeletal structure of lower limb based on the skeletal topology, and discuss the validity of this scheme using 10 torso CT cases.
