This work deals with methods of segmentation of biomedical image signals. It describes, sums up and compares representative methods of digital image processing. Segmentation based on parametric representation is one of the mentioned methods. So as the basic parameter can be chosen for example luminance and the final binary image is obtained by thresholding. Next described method is segmentation based on edge representation. This method can be divided into edge detection by the help of edge detectors and of Hough transformation. Edge detectors work with the first and second derivation. The following method is region-based segmentation, which can be used for a image with noise. This category can be divided into three parts. The first one is segmentation via splitting and merging regions, when the image is split and the created regions are tested on a defined condition. If the condition is satisfied, the region merges and doesn’t continue splitting. The second one is region growing segmentation, when adjacent pixels with a similar intensity of luminance are grouped together and create a segmentated region. Third one is watershed segmentation algorithm based on the idea of water diffusion on uneven surface. The last group of methods is segmentation via flexible and active contours. Here is described an active shape model proceeding from a possibility to deform models so that they match with sample shapes. Next I also describe method Snakes, where occurs gradual contour shaping up to the edge of the object in the image. For the final editing is used mathematical morphology of segmentated images. I aimed to meet methods of image signals segmentation, to cover the chosen methods as a script in programming language Matlab and to check their properties on images.
