Extension Description

Segmentation of tumors and hot lymph nodes in PET scans. The software is based on the thesis of Markus L. van Tol (2014): A Graph-Based Method for Segmentation of Tumors and Lymph Nodes in Volumetric PET Images, The University of Iowa, 2014, and implemented as a Slicer Editor Effect.

Modules

  • PET Tumor Segmentation Editor Effect
  • PETTumorSegmentation Plugin: This plugin provides the processing logic used by the editor effect for the actual processing. It is hidden from the GUI and not intended to be used directly.
