Objective

The aim of this project is to develop an automatic/semi-automatic methodology to convert whole body imaging datasets into three-dimensional models for neuromuscular biomechanics and finite element simulations.

Specific Aims

  • Implement image-to-image registration and segmentation algorithms on knee MR datasets. Registration includes masking algorithms to isolate structures of interest (i.e. femur, patella, and tibia bones).
  • Perform a parameter space exploration on masked MR datasets.
  • Develop model-to-image registration technique to morph existing model atlas to specified MR image geometry.


Approach, Plan

We are working on understanding the capabilities of RegisterImage module in Slicer to apply image-to-image registration on knee datasets. We are implementing masking algorithms to isolate specific knee bones, and perform parameter exploration to evaluate the sensitivity of registered images to input parameters. We are exploring the feasibility of applying python ICP-based registration algorithms to directly morph a surface model to a target image geometry.

Our goals for the project week are:

  • Implement an algorithm to acquire masked regions of interest from MR datasets.
  • Perform and evaluate results from a parameter space exploration study of RegisterImages

Batchmake module on knee dataset.

  • Resolve issues in building Python modules from

slicer source code.

  • Explore possibility of model-to-image registration using

existing atlas (.vtk, .stl) to a target image using Python ICP Registration module.
