  20. New Development: Default Preprocessing Default Pre- Processing • Lower bar for entry • Starting point for building effective pipeline • Not intended for all scenarios • No interface for complex parameter tweaking • Easily bypassed by advanced users Target Image Normalization Atlas-to-target Registration Target-to-target Registration

  21. New Development: Default Preprocessing Default Pre- Processing • VTK filter by Kilian Pohl • Scale intensities to achieve predefined mean • Heuristics determine histogram cutoffs • Default settings for T1, T2 images Target Image Normalization Atlas-to-target Registration Target-to-target Registration

  22. New Development: Default Preprocessing Default Pre- Processing • Target image 1 is fixed image • Perform registration for each additional target image • Align image centers • Rigid registration, mutual information, gradient descent optimization (ITK) • Coarse-to-fine Target Image Normalization Atlas-to-target Registration Target-to-target Registration

  23. New Development: Default Preprocessing Default Pre- Processing • Target image 1 is fixed image • Perform registration with selected atlas image • Align image centers, Rigid registration, B-Spline registration • Mutual information, (normalized cross-correlation, sse, not yet tested) • Rigid: gradient descent, B-Spline: ITK LBFGSB optimizer, 5x5x5 knot points • Coarse-to-fine • Fast/Standard/Slow: sample points, max iterations • Resample all atlas images via transform; guess background value Target Image Normalization Atlas-to-target Registration Target-to-target Registration

  25. Tutorial Data Walkthrough 1/3 • README: extra release notes • Predefined parameter file • MR T1 & T2 brain segmentation: White matter, gray matter, CSF • Target Images • ImageData_Input sub directory • Target: T1 & T2 images used in parameter file • Target_NewPatient1, Target_NewPatient2: New data to try with the parameter file

  26. Tutorial Data Walkthrough 2/3 • Atlas Images • ImageData_Input sub directory • Atlas: atlas images used in parameter file • Atlas_NewAtlas: Extra atlas data for demonstration purposes (currently a copy of first atlas)

  27. Tutorial Data Walkthrough 3/3 • Low resolution data for testing • Full sized data: 30 minutes • Low resolution data: 1 minute • Data, parameters have “_small” appended to filename

  28. `One-Click’ Module Tutorial 1/3 • EMSegment tutorial data is required • Within Slicer3, open EMSegment Simple Module

  29. `One-Click’ Module Tutorial 2/3 • MRML Scene: Select the tutorial parameter set • Result Labelmap: Select a new image filename • Target Volumes: Select input target volumes from one of the target directories (e.g., Target_NewPatient1) • Note: target volume order is important • Click `Apply’, wait (~30 minutes for full size images)…

  30. `One-Click’ Module Tutorial 3/3 • Review the results in Slicer3 • Load target images • Load result labelmap • Use slice views to review segmentation results • Apply Model Maker to generate surfaces

  31. EMSegment Command-line Examples • Script examples available in tutorial directory • New images • New atlas • New image and atlas • See README

  32. Template Builder Tutorial • EMSegment tutorial data is required • Within Slicer3, open EMSegment Module

  33. Template Builder Tutorial • Load tutorial parameters • File->Load Scene • Select ‘mrml’ file included with tutorial • Explore volumes included with scene • Target volumes, atlas volumes • An old segmentation result is also included

  34. Template Builder Tutorial • Step 1: Choose EMSegmenter parameter set • For now, use tutorial set • Later use this interface to create a new parameter set

  35. Template Builder Tutorial • Define anatomical structures • Right click to add or delete nodes • Label corresponds to eventual voxel values in segmentation result

  36. Template Builder Tutorial • Choose an atlas volume for each leaf node • To change or add new atlas volumes • Load new volumes into Slicer3 • Select new volumes at this step

  37. Template Builder Tutorial • Choose target images • To change or add target images • Load new volumes into Slicer3 • Select new volumes at this step • You can reorder target images; order is important

  38. Template Builder Tutorial • You can choose to align target images • First target is fixed image • Rigid, mutual information registration

  39. Template Builder Tutorial • You can choose to normalize target images • Simple, default strategy • Default parameter sets available from pulldown

  40. Template Builder Tutorial • Intensity distributions define appearance of each leaf structure • Gaussian • Dimensionality equal to number of target images • Two methods • Sample voxels from images • Specify mean and covariance manually • Tip: sample first, then fine tune manually

  41. Template Builder Tutorial • Sample voxels from images • Load first target image into Slicer3 slicer view • Choose anatomical structure • Choose `manual sampling’ • Ctrl-left-click on image to add voxels

  42. Template Builder Tutorial • Sample voxels from images (continued) • To remove an unwanted sample right-click on it and choose “remove” • Change back to “manual” mode to tweak distribution

  43. Template Builder Tutorial • Segmentation parameters for every tree node • Influence • Prior weight relative to other structures • Atlas • Input channels • Smoothing (parent nodes only) • Stopping Conditions

  44. Template Builder Tutorial • Atlas-to-target registration parameters • Moving image registered to first target image • You can choose any image loaded into Slicer3 • Same transformation applied to all atlas images before segmentation begins

  45. Template Builder Tutorial • Select output and run registration • You can troubleshoot preprocessing by saving intermediate results • Choose an output labelmap • ROI governs segmentation processing (one-based, not zero-based)
