摘要:
A system and method for automatic segmentation, performed by selecting a deformable model of an anatomical structure of interest imaged in a volumetric image, the deformable model formed of a plurality of polygons including vertices and edges, displaying the deformable model on a display, detecting a feature point of the anatomical structure of interest corresponding to each of the plurality of polygons and adapting the deformable model by moving each of the vertices toward the corresponding feature points until the deformable model morphs to a boundary of the anatomical structure of interest, forming a segmentation of the anatomical structure of interest.

摘要:
A system and method for identifying an abnormality of an anatomical structure. The system and method segments, using a processor, the anatomical structure imaged in a volumetric image of a plurality of control patients to produce a control segmentation of the anatomical structures of each of the control patients, obtains a normative dataset by extracting a statistical representation of a morphology of the control segmentations, segments the anatomical structure of a patient being analyzed for abnormalities to produce a patient segmentation and compares the patient segmentation to the normative dataset obtained from the control segmentations.
摘要:
A seating unit with a flexible seat back having an upper portion separated into two halves positioned to support a user's back at opposite sides of his spine, and with these halves being mounted for resiliently resisted rearward deflection relative to one another in order to accommodate movement of the user's body, and with a slit or the like being provided at the center of the back between these halves to enable projection of the user's spine rearwardly beyond adjacent portions of the user's back for optimum comfort at all times. The back structure may be connected to a generally horizontal seat element, which may be bifurcated to have two relatively movable forwardly projecting portions. The device may also have an anchoring portion for detachable connection to a cushion of an upholstered seat on which the unit is to be used.
