Segmentation Modules
This module is designed for experienced user who want to perform atlas based automatic segmentation. The module does not constrain the number of anatomical classes to be segmentation. Each anatomy is characterized via an atlas that captures the variation of that structure within the population. The user defines associates atlases with anatomical structures by completing a predefined workflow. This parameterization of the algorithm then results in a template for the task that than can be applied to a new set of images that were acuiqred with the same imaging protocol. EMSegment Simple is for less experienced users who would like to apply these templates to their own images. EM Segment Command provides users with the same functionality as EM Segment Simple. However, the module can be executed via batch mode.
This module is designed to segment single structures that have homogeneous intensity pattern. The module is simply initialized by placing fiducials inside the object. Users can interactively modify the resulting segmentation by scrolling through the evolution of the label contour.
This filter creates a binary thresholded image that separates an image into foreground and background components. The filter calculates the optimum threshold for those two classes automatically. The module requires a minimal user input.
These are statistical region growing algorithm. Similar to fast marching, these algorithms are initialized via setting seeds inside the object of interest. At each iteration, these approaches first generates an intensity model of the structure of interest from the the current segmentation and then update thee segmentation by labeling all voxels that are connected to that region and whose intensity values comply with the intensity model |
