This paper describes X-ray image processing. The aim of processing is to segment regions of jawbone cysts and evaluate their local descriptors. It is necessary to choose suitable segmentation method because of adverse parameters of regions. The regions of the cysts are of low contrast and the pixel intensity distribution is not homogenous. The semiautomatic live-wire method was chosen. This approach to image segmentation is faster and more accurate than manual segmentation. It is very good compromise between simple manual edge tracing and automatic methods such as thresholding, watershed segmentation or other methods whose results must be post-processed. The second step of processing is to evaluate local descriptors of segmented regions which correspond to cysts. Several parameters were chosen to describe these regions: region are"@en . . .
