IMAGE PLACEHOLDER

The goal of this project is to implement a 2D dilate filter that can be used to extend the left atrium endo layer segmentation to the left atrium epicardium boundary. The filter will extend the endo layer segmentation in the desired slice direction by 4 pixels. LGE-MRI images will be used as inputs to the filter. The output of this filter is further used to obtain a segmentation of only the wall of the left atrium by subtracting the endo layer segmentation from the epi layer segmentation. The implementation of this filter in Slicer would complete another part of our workflow.

Objective

  1. Port existing CARMA C++ code for 2D dilate filter to command-line Slicer module
  2. Test and Document Module
  3. Deploy in CARMA Extension Module

Approach, Plan

We plan to implement this algorithm as a Slicer command-line module. We will use the existing Slicer Editor tool as part of our implementation.
