medical image processing - Import and Segment DICOM (CT) files

Does anyone know of good codes to import DICOM files (from CT) and to segment the bone present within the DICOM file?

The image processing toolbox should contain most of what you need.

yes，sir，read dcm image can use dicomread，if want to segment image，there are many method，we should choose method by real image information，such as

I = dicomread('CT-MONO2-16-ankle.dcm');
bw = imbinarize(mat2gray(I),'adaptive','ForegroundPolarity','dark','Sensitivity',0.7);
bw = bwareaopen(bw, 50);
figure
imshow(I,[]);
hold on;
h = imshow(label2rgb(bwlabel(bw)), []);
set(h, 'AlphaData', 0.5);
