Semi-Automatic Vertebra Segmentation
Most of the existing research in medical image segmentation has focused on magnetic resonance (MR) and computed tomography (CT). Much less work has been done in the segmentation of X-ray images. Nevertheless, medical specialists often examine X-rays images of spinal columns to determine the presence of abnormalities or dysfunctions and to analyse the vertebral mobility. To help them to establis...
متن کاملSemi - Automatic Segmentation for Serial Section
Providing the detailed 3D structure of the full set of neurons and synapses in an organism is a fundamental problem in neuroscience. For performing such 3D reconstruction at nanoscale, serial section Electron Microscopy has been proven as the only existing technique. However, this technique produces Terabytes of imaging data which analyzing those images manually is an extremely time consuming t...
متن کاملAutomatic Prostate Cancer Segmentation Using Kinetic Analysis in Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI
Background: Dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) provides functional information on the microcirculation in tissues by analyzing the enhancement kinetics which can be used as biomarkers for prostate lesions detection and characterization.Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate spatiotemporal patterns of tumors by extracting semi-quantitative as well as w...
متن کاملSemi-automatic Segmentation of Prostate by Directional Search for Edge Boundaries
Semi-automatic segmentation of the prostate boundary is presented for the pre-operational images of the MRIguided ultrasonic thermal therapy of the prostate cancer. The specific deformable surface method is based on firstly fitting an ellipsoid on the given manual landmark points, then modifying the shape of the initialization surface mesh by masking out the regions of the separately segmented ...
متن کاملSemi-Automatic Segmentation of Mouse Embryo MRIs
Introduction: There is new interest in prospectively knocking out each of the approximately 25000 genes of the adult mouse. Imaging, and in particular MRI, is becoming recognized as a valuable tool for phenotyping the resulting adult mouse lines. As a complement to the adult mouse, there is also a need to phenotype mouse embryos in order to analyze normal embryonic development as well as embryo...
