Objective
We will discuss the possibility of combining the skull stripping algorithm developed at JHU (a joint registration and segmentation approach) and the one developed at GE (a deformable surface model) into a single skull stripping algorithm to be included in NA-MIC kit.
Approach, Plan
To understand each approach and discuss the best way to combine these efforts. Develop a plan for implementation as a Slicer module.
Progress
The deformable surface-based approach is similar to the Brain Extraction Tool (BET). The algorithm has been tested on 300+ T1 weighted images from OASIS database and shows a DICE score of 0.94 with the brain masks provided in the OASIS database. This algorithm may be modified to work on images with other contrast mechanisms. The joint registration and segmentation algorithm also works on T1 weighted images, and has been tested on several hundred images with good accuracy.
- Update #1: We have successfully compiled the skull stripping algorithm, Simple Paradigm for Extra-Cranial Tissue Removal (SPECTRE) as a Slicer3.4 plugin. The following images show an OASIS brain skull-stripped with the plugin. The method requires a registration. The Affine Registration module of Slicer3.4 does not provide the desired result. Therefore, we will include Deformable BSpline registration and provide a plugin.
