Fuzzy segmentation methods, especially fuzzy \(c\) -means algorithms, have been widely used in medical imaging in past decades. This paper proposes a novel neighborhood intuitionistic fuzzy \(c\) -means clustering algorithm with a genetic algorithm (NIFCMGA). This new clustering algorithm technology can retain the advantages of an intuitionistic fuzzy \(c\) -means clustering algorithm to maximize benefits and reduce noise/outlier influences through neighborhood membership. Furthermore, the genetic algorithms were used simultaneously to select the optimal parameters of the proposed clustering algorithm. This proposed technology has been successfully applied to the clustering of different regions of magnetic resonance imaging and computerized tomography scanning, which may be extended to the diagnosis of abnormalities. Comparisons with other approaches demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed NIFCMGA.
