Abstract: The invention relates to a method for data processing. At stage 3 the position of the reference object in the reference image and its relation to a set of reference landmarks in the reference image is established at step 6. In order to enable this, the reference imaging of learning examples may be performed at step 2 and each reference image may be analyzed at step 4, the results may be stored in a suitably arranged database. In order to process the image under consideration, the image is accessed at step 11, the suitable landmark corresponding to the reference landmark in the reference image is identified at step 13 and the spatial relationship established at step 6 is applied to the landmark thereby providing the initial position of the object in the actual image. In case when for the object an imaging volume is selected, the method 1 according to the invention follows to step 7, whereby the scanning 17 is performed within the boundaries given by the thus established scanning volume. In case when for the object a model representative of the target is selected, the method 1 follows to the image segmentation step 19, whereby a suitable segmentation is performed. In case when for the model a deformable model is selected, the segmentation is performed by deforming the model thereby providing spatial boundaries of the target area. The invention further relates to an apparatus and a computer program for image processing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method 1 of image segmentation where in step 2 a prior model representative of a structure conceived to be segmented in an image is accessed. Preferably, the image comprises a medical diagnostic image. Still preferably, the medical diagnostic image is prepared in a DICOM format, whereby supplementary information is stored besides diagnostic data. In these cases the method 1 according to the invention advantageously proceeds to step 3, where the supplementary information is extracted from electronic file 5, comprising for example suitable patient-related information 5a and/or suitable structure-related information 5b. Examples of the patient-related information comprise a patient's age, sex, group, etc., whereas examples of the structure-related information may comprise an anatomic location of the structure, such as rectum, bladder, lung etc, or the suspected / diagnosed pathology of the patient. In an alternative embodiment of the method 1 according to the invention, the supplementary information is provided by a human operator in step 7, where he can enter suitable supplementary information 9a, 9b using a user interface 9. When the supplementary information is loaded, the method 1 according to the invention proceeds to step 4 in which the prior model is being changed using the supplementary information yielding a further model. In step 6 the method 1 performs the image segmentation using the thus obtained further model and in step 8 the results of the segmentation step may be visualized on a suitable viewer.

Abstract: The method (1) according to the invention may be schematically divided into three major phases. Phase (2) comprises preparatory steps, namely the step (3) of acquiring a suitable dataset, which is then subjected to a suitable binary segmentation at step (4) results of which are being accessed at step (5). The results comprise temporally sequenced binary coded images, whereby image portions corresponding to blood are labeled as unity, the rest is set to zero. The subsequent phase (12) of the method according to the invention is directed to performing the image processing for segmenting a structure. At step (8) a computation is performed whereby a preceding binary coded image (8a) corresponding to a phase from the temporal sequence is subtracted from a subsequent binary coded image 8b corresponding to a phase yielding a multi-dimensional temporal feature map (8c). At step (9) spatial positions corresponding to a certain voxel value are derived and are used to segment the structure. A pre-defined deformable shape model is accessed at step (11), which is then deformed at step (14) in accordance with spatial coordinates, derived at step (9). Preferably, the segmentation result is stored at step (16). Finally, during a further phase (22) of the method according to the invention, the segmentation results are displayed at step (18) using suitable display means. Preferably, the segmented surface is overlaid on the original data using a two, three or four-dimensional visualization technique. Still preferable, to ease comprehension of the result, the segmented surface is presented as a color-code in a suitable transparency mode. The invention further relates to an apparatus and a computer program for segmenting a structure in a dataset.
