Objective:

  • Integrate artificial neural network segmentation into the NA-MIC kit for segmentation of upper extremity regions of interest.

Progress:

  • Base algorithm has been developed using the annie neural network library
  • Segmentation algorithm has been applied to segmentation of the phalanx bones on the index finger
    • Paper has been published on this initial work


To Do:

  • Initial evaluation of this technique has been performed for phalanx bones.
  • Need to rework ITK neural network libraries to allow the size of the network to be dynamic configured at run time instead of compile time
    • There are several issues that neeed to be resolved regarding the Neural network I/O in ITK
    • Consider the inclusion of the old ANN code that existed in the BRAINS software

Key Investigators:

  • Iowa: Nicole DeVries, Nicole Grosland, Vincent Magnotta
