Project Description

Atelectasis is the collapse of part or (much less commonly) all of a lung. It is caused by a blockage of the air passages (bronchus or bronchioles) or by pressure on the outside of the lung. Traditional diagnosis is done performing a 2D measument on one CT slice. In this project we want to compute the actual volumetric spread of the pathology.


Objective

  • Develop an easy to use atelectasis quantification tool.

Approach, Plan

  • Make use of the CIP platform.
  • Create an atelectasis pipeline module GUI (guiding the physician through the process)
  • Return the actual quantification of healthy lung and atelectasis.

Progress

  • vtkMRMLLabelMapVolume node is merged into the trunk
