A Fast and Robust Method for Volumetric MRI Brain Extraction
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a method for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) segmentation and the extraction of main brain tissues. The method uses an image processing technique based on level-set approach and EM-algorithm. The paper describes the main features of the method, and presents experimental results with real volumetric images in order to evaluate the performance of the method.

متن کاملComparison the Accuracy of Fetal Brain Extraction from T2-Half-Fourier Acquisition Single-Shot Turbo Spin-Echo (HASTE) MR Image with T2-True Fast Imaging with Steady State Free Precession (TRUFI) MR Image by Level Set Algorithm
Background Access to appropriate images of fetal brain can greatly assist to diagnose of probable abnormalities. The aim of this study was to compare the suitability of T2-True Fast Imaging with Steady State Free Precession (T2-TRUFI), and T2-Half-Fourier Acquisition Single-Shot Turbo Spin-Echo (T2- HASTE( magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to extract the fetal brain using the level set algorithm...
متن کاملVolumetric reconstruction from printed films: Enabling 30 year longitudinal analysis in MR neuroimaging
Hospitals often hold historical MR image data printed on films without being able to make it accessible to modern image processing techniques. Having the possibility to recover geometrically consistent, volumetric images from scans acquired decades ago will enable more comprehensive, longitudinal studies to understand disease progressions. In this paper, we propose a consistent framework to rec...
متن کاملMulti-atlas multi-shape segmentation of fetal brain MRI for volumetric and morphometric analysis of ventriculomegaly
The recent development of motion robust super-resolution fetal brain MRI holds out the potential for dramatic new advances in volumetric and morphometric analysis. Volumetric analysis based on volumetric and morphometric biomarkers of the developing fetal brain must include segmentation. Automatic segmentation of fetal brain MRI is challenging, however, due to the highly variable size and shape...
