Abstract(in English) The presence of specialists cannot be always expected in every ER department. A specific computer-aided detection (CAD) system will be useful to unaccustomed physicians in assessing trauma. We have developed an automated detection technique of traumatic hematoma in the abdominal area and a method in measuring the total volume of traumatic hematoma. The detection approach includes the following steps: 1) Subtraction using before and after contrast enhanced CT images, 2) Determination of the CT value of contrast enhanced blood, 3) Detection of hematoma area based on the CT value determined, 4) Elimination of false positive area. Three trauma cases with abdominal injury were employed to estimate the initial result. All of the hematoma area were detected.
