Objective:
We want to add various statistical measures into our PDE flows for medical imaging. This will allow the incorporation of global image information into the locally defined PDE frameowrk.
Progress:
We developped flows which can separate the distributions inside and outside the evolving contour, and we have also been including shape information in the flows.
Completed:
- A statistically based flow for image segmentation, using Fast Marching
- The code has been integrated into the Slicer
- A user-oriented tutorial for the Fast Marching algorithm is available at:Slicer Module Tutorial
Key Investigators:
Delphine Nain, Eric Pichon, Oleg Michailovich, Yogesh Rathi, James Malcolm, Allen Tannenbaum
