Module Name
SpineSegmentation module for Slicer 3.6
General Information
Module Type & Category
Type: Interactive or CLI
Category: Segmentation
Authors, Collaborators & Contact

Module Description
Image segmentation of the spinal cord and the cerebro-spinal fluid in T2-weighted MRI images. The SpineSegmentation module implements a model-based pattern recognition algorithm for fully automated segmentation.
Usage
Use Cases, Examples
This module is especially appropriate for this use case:
- Automated segmentation of MRI of the spine is critical during minimally invasive intervention when frequent acquisitions of intra-operative images prevents the manual segmentation of the image by an expert. The SpineSegmentation module provides a solution to reduce the burden on the radiologist.
Examples of the module in use:
- Image-guided surgery for the treatment of disk herniation
Tutorial
- Sample Data Set
The sample data sets MRI_Spine.mhd and MRI_Spine.zraw are available at the link below. You will need to create a username on http://nitrc.org. Then log onto nitrc.org and click on the link below. Right-click on MRI_Spine.mhd and MRI_Spine.zraw to copy those files to your local directory.

Below are the step-by-step instructions to load, process and save some sample data (see link above).
Step 1.
Load the sample data |
Step 2/9.
Select the SpineSegmentation module. |
Step 3/9.
Select the input image. |
Step 4/9.
Create a Slicer node for the output image. |
Step 5/9.
Create a Slicer node for the output model |
- Step 6/9.
Apply the segmentation algorithm |
- Step 7/9.
Review segmentation result. The sliders on the top of each 2D view allows for reviewing the segmentation result overlaid on the input image. |
- Step 8/9.
Save result image and model. The output image and the 3D model can be saved using the Slicer user interface. |
- Step 9/9.
Find contact information for help and paper reference |
Quick Tour of Features and Use
- Input panel:
- Image input select the input image
- Image output create Slicer node for output image
- Model output create Slicer node for output model
- Command panel:
- Default reset input and output nodes to blank values
- Cancel cancel the execution of the algorithm
- Apply apply the segmentation algorithm (takes approx. 3 min)
