Objective
We will continue developing and testing a Slicer module for the white matter lesion segmentation algorithm. Moreover, we will do more extensive testing by obtaining more data within NA-MIC community.
Approach, Plan
We will improve the current version of WMLS Slicer module, especially the generalization performance of the training model and speed.
Progress
We have developed and tested a Slicer module for WML segmentation. Moreover, we have improved the speed of segmentation stage after training. We will provide the tutorial for this project meeting to present how to use our learning-based white matter lesion segmenation algorithm in Slicer 3. Subtasks implemented include: (1) a skull stripping algorithm working on T1 weighted images; (2) a fuzzy clustering algorithm for tissue segmentation; (3) a parametric model for gain field correction. All of these subtasks are implemented by using ITK. The training step uses AdaBoost and the segmenation step uses a support vector machine.
