Figure 6
(a) Binarized image of H&E sample shown in Figure 4. (b) Image of the segmented alveoli calculated by connected component labeling. Notice how the large vessel in the center of the image is mistakenly included as airspace. (c) Vessel wall and its convex hull. (d) Removal of the vessel based on the intersection of the centroid of the vessel with the convex hull of the wall.
