Objective:

  • To utilize the Slicer3 Expectation Maximization Algorithm for segmentation of the phalanx bones of the hand.

Progress:

  • We have utilized the Slicer2.7 EM Segmentation Module for segmentation of the phalanx bones
    1. Registration was performed outside of Slicer using ITK registration algorithms that are available in the IaFeMesh software. This includes Thin plate spline, B-Spline and rigid registration algorithms.
    2. Probability map information was created from a single subject used as the atlas image and filtered using a Gaussian filter.
  • Initial evaluation has been performed
    • Reliability assessed on fourteen specimens that also had the index finger segmented, and two specimens that had the index, middle, ring and little fingers manually segmented
    • Validation assessed using the laser scanning of the index finger (proximal, middle, and distal) phalanx bones in five specimens
  • Work is underway to develop a Slicer2.7 tutorial for this segmentation (File:Draft EM Segment Tutorial 9 12.pdf)

Results:

Relative Overlap with Manual Rater
Finger Phalanx Segment Average Relative Overlap
Index (14 subjects) Proximal 0.87
Medial 0.80
Distal 0.70
Middle (2 subjects) Proximal 0.79
Medial 0.77
Distal 0.71
Ring (2 subjects) Proximal 0.76
Medial 0.82
Distal 0.80
Pinky (2 subjects) Proximal 0.70
Medial 0.73
Distal 0.72
  • Example of Validation Results is shown below in the figures



To Do:

  • Update the the tutorial to support the Slicer3 Workflow
    • Tutorial will be developed by Austin Ramme - In progress
  • Slicer3 Segmentation applied to the femur
    • Using BRAINSFit for mapping of probability information to the subject images
