摘要: A system for visualizing an object in image data using a first cross-section surface coupled to a model of the object, the system comprising a model unit for adapting a model to the object in the image data, a surface unit for adapting the first cross-section surface to the adapted model on the basis of the coupling between the first cross-section surface and the model, and a visualization unit for computing an image from the image data on the basis of the adapted first cross-section surface. The first cross-section surface may be used to define a slice of the image data for visualizing useful features of the object. Advantageously, adapting the model to the object in the image data and the coupling between the first cross-section surface and the model enable the first cross-section surface to be adapted to the image data. Thus, the shape, orientation and/or position of the adapted first cross-section surface is/are based on the shape, orientation and/or position of the adapted model.

摘要: The invention relates to a system (100) for visualizing an object in image data using a first cross-section surface coupled to a model of the object, the system comprising a model unit for adapting a model to the object in the image data, a surface unit for adapting the first cross-section surface to the adapted model on the basis of the coupling between the first cross-section surface and the model, and a visualization unit for computing an image from the image data on the basis of the adapted first cross-section surface. The first cross-section surface may be used to define a slice of the image data for visualizing useful features of the object. Any suitable rendering technique, e.g. maximum intensity projection, can be used by the visualization unit to compute the image based on the slice of the image data defined by the first cross-section surface. Because the first cross-section surface of the invention is coupled to the model, the position, orientation and/or shape of the surface is determined by the model adapted to the object in the image data. Advantageously, adapting the model to the object in the image data and the coupling between the first cross-section surface and the model enable the first cross-section surface to be adapted to the image data. Thus, the shape, orientation and/or position of the adapted first cross-section surface is/are based on the shape, orientation and/or position of the adapted model. Adapting the first cross-section surface directly to the object based on features in the image data would be less reliable and less accurate because the surface comprises fewer features of the object than the model.

摘要: The invention relates to a system (100) for segmenting an object in image data using model-based image segmentation, the system comprising a feature unit (120) for identifying features in the image data for computing an external energy of a mesh on the basis of a current position of the mesh, wherein the feature unit (120) further comprises a candidate feature unit (122) for selecting a plurality of candidate features in the image data, for identifying a feature to be included in the features identified in the image data, a position unit (124) for determining a position of each candidate feature of the plurality of the candidate features relative to a region of the image data, a feature function unit (126) for computing a strength of each candidate feature, wherein the strength of each candidate feature depends on the position of each candidate feature relative to the region, and an evaluation unit (128) for evaluating each candidate feature of the plurality of candidate features and for identifying the feature among the plurality of candidate features based on this evaluation. Determining whether a selected candidate feature is located inside the region which should be avoided, e.g., inside another mesh adapted to another object in the image data, allows penalizing this candidate feature during the computation of the strength of each feature and thus during the evaluation of the plurality of candidate features.

摘要: A system for validating motion estimation comprising a field unit (110) for obtaining a deformation vector field (DVF) estimating the motion by transforming a first image at a first phase of the motion into a second image at a second phase of the motion, a metric unit (120) for computing a metric of a local volume change at a plurality of locations, and a conformity unit (130) for computing a conformity measure based on the computed metric of the local volume change at the plurality of locations and a local property of the first or second image defined at the plurality of locations. Based on the value of the conformity measure, the DFV estimating the motion is validated. Experiments show that the conformity measure based on the computed metric of a local volume change at a plurality of locations and the local property of the first or second image, defined at the plurality of locations, does not necessarily favor a large weight for the outer force to provide a more accurate registration. One reason for this observation may be that large deformations providing more accurate alignment often lead to deformations resulting in unreasonably large volume changes. DVFs comprising such deformations thus are more likely to be discarded by the system of the invention.

摘要: The invention relates to a system (100) for segmenting an object in an image, comprising a first adapter (110) for adapting a first model for segmenting the object to the image, an analyzer (115) for extracting a feature from the image based on the adapted first model, a selector (120) for selecting a second model for segmenting the object from a plurality of models for segmenting the object, based on the feature extracted from the image, wherein the second model comprises additional detail of the object, an initializer (125) for initializing the second model based on the adapted first model and/or the feature extracted from the image, and a second adapter (130) for adapting the initialized second model to the image. The features extracted from the image based on the adapted first model help the system (100) to select the second model for segmenting the object from a plurality of models for segmenting the object. The adapted first model and/or the extracted features are also used for initializing the second model. Because the second model comprises the additional detail of the object, the segmentation result using the second model is more complete than the segmentation result obtained using the first model. Moreover, the initialization of the second model based on the adapted first model and/or the detected features improves the accuracy of the second model adaptation.
