Module Description

This module can be used in order to compute bone morphometry feature maps of an input image. The computation of the bone morphometry features is based on a binary segmentation of the whole image and it based on the itk remote module: itkBoneMorphometry itkBoneMorphometry.
The following Bone Morphompetry Features are computed:

  • percent bone volume [BVTV]
  • trabecular thickness [TbTh]
  • trabecular separation [TbSp]
  • trabecular number [TbN]
  • Bone Surface to Bone Volume ratio [BSBV]

Use Cases

  • Inputs:
    • Input volume [index: 0] : Input Volume
    • Output volume [index: 1] : Output diffusion-weighted volume where the 8 feature maps will be stored
    • Input mask [-s --inputMask] (None) : A mask defining the region over which texture features will be calculated
    • Threshold [-i --inputMask] (0) : The threshold value that will be used for the binary segmentation of the image
    • Neighborhood radius [-n --neighborhoodRadius] (4) : The size of the neighborhood radius
