Rapid Automated Target Segmentation and Tracking on 4D Data without Initial Contours
Purpose. To achieve rapid automated delineation of gross target volume (GTV) and to quantify changes in volume/position of the target for radiotherapy planning using four-dimensional (4D) CT. Methods and Materials. Novel morphological processing and successive localization (MPSL) algorithms were designed and implemented for achieving autosegmentation. Contours automatically generated using MPSL...
متن کاملSegmentation and tracking of cytoskeletal filaments using open active contours.
We use open active contours to quantify cytoskeletal structures imaged by fluorescence microscopy in two and three dimensions. We developed an interactive software tool for segmentation, tracking, and visualization of individual fibers. Open active contours are parametric curves that deform to minimize the sum of an external energy derived from the image and an internal bending and stretching e...
متن کاملLeaf Segmentation and Tracking Using Probabilistic Parametric Active Contours
Active contours or snakes are widely used for segmentation and tracking. These techniques require the minimization of an energy function, which is generally a linear combination of a data fit term and a regularization term. This energy function can be adjusted to exploit the intrinsic object and image features. This can be done by changing the weighting parameters of the data fit and regulariza...
متن کاملNovel target segmentation and tracking based on fuzzy membership distribution for vision-based target tracking system
One of the basic processes of a vision-based target tracking system is the detection process that separates an object from the background in a given image. A novel target detection technique for suppression of the background clutter is presented that uses a predicted point that is estimated from a tracking filter. For every pixel, the three-dimensional feature that is composed of the x-position...
متن کاملAutomated, Accurate and Fast Segmentation of 4D Cardiac MR Images
Based on discrete mathematical morphology, we propose a new automated and fast procedure to segment the left ventricular myocardium in 4D (3D+t) cine-MRI sequences. Thanks to the comparison with manual segmentation performed by two cardiologists, we demonstrate the accuracy of the proposed method. The relevance of the ejection fraction and myocardium mass measured from segmentations is also ass...
