We develop an adaptive active contour tracing algorithm for extraction of spinal cord from MRI that is fully automatic, unlike existing approaches that need manually chosen seeds. We can accurately extract the target spinal cord and construct the volume of interest to provide visual guidance for strategic rehabilitation surgery planning.
我们开发了一种用于从磁共振成像(MRI)中提取脊髓的自适应主动轮廓跟踪算法,该算法是完全自动化的,这与现有的需要手动选择种子点的方法不同。我们能够准确提取目标脊髓并构建感兴趣体积,为战略性康复手术规划提供视觉指导。
