Objective

The goal of this project is to achieve fast (< 2 minute) interactive segmentation of 5-10 needles from MRI images using Slicer.


Approach, Plan

We will explore different segmentation/editing tools in Slicer to determine which ones can most efficiently segment 2mm needles (10-15 cm long), from MRI scans in which voxels are about 2mm in each dimension. (These needles are not straight lines, and are often placed within a few mm of each other.)
