v3.6.3 Slicer3-6Announcement-v1.png Slicer Registration Library Case 43: Surface registration of 3D vertebra models

Input

this is the main fixed reference image. All images are ev. aligned into this space this is the main fixed reference image. All images are ev. aligned into this space lleft this is the moving imagethis is the moving image
baseline model follow-up model: contains defect and is acquired in different orientation

Modules

Objective / Background

This dataset contains 3D modls obtained from in vitro CT of a human vertibral body segment (L4) before and after regional damage. Goal is to align the two models to study in detail the local changes that occurred and obtain estimates of structural integrity loss. Because the two orientations differ widely between acquisitions image-to-image registration has reduced robustness due to difficulty in initializing a good starting condition. Surface registration on the other hand is very robust toward strong difference in pose and he ce makes a good candidate for obtaining a fully automated first alignment.

Keywords

CT, spine cancer, vertebrae, surface registration, 3D models, model registration

Issues Challenges

  • two images have very different spatial origins (as defined in original DICOM header): recenter first
  • the initial segmentation obtained by thresh Leung the CT image is very sparse and not suitable for model generation as is. Morphological operators will have to be applied to generate a meaningful label map to build models from.
  • the two models differ significantly in rotational alignment

Input Data

  • fixed: segmented CT "intact_seg", 0.4 x 0.4 x 0.4 mm voxel size, axial; 284 x 262 x 148 unsigned short image
  • moving: segmented CT "defect_seg", 0.5 x 0.5 x 0.50 mm voxel size, axial; 221 x 206 x 113 unsigned short image

Procedure / Pipeline

  1. Open case scene file or import image data: RegLib_C43_SlicerScene1.mrml
  2. Preprocess segmentation for building surface models
    1. we need to fill in the interior of the vertebral body, we use the morphological closing (Editor) and Binary Hole Filling module
    2. go to the Editor
      1. select "intact_CT" as master volume and "intact_seg" volume as label map to edit
      2. Select the Dilation tool, click on 8-neighbor checkbox for connectiviy, click Apply
      3. Select the Erosion tool, click on 8-neighbor checkbox for connectiviy, click Apply
    3. go to the Binary Hole Filling module
      1. Select the "intact_seg" volume as input
      2. Set Radius to 11,11,11
      3. Create a new output volume, rename to "intact_segfilled" or similar
      4. click Apply
  3. repeat above preprocessing for the second segmentation "defect_seg"
  4. Build Surface Models
    1. go to the Model Maker module
    2. Select preprocessed (see above) "intact_segfilled" as input volume
    3. Create a new model hierarchy that will contain both models
    4. Change model name to "intact_model1" or similar
    5. set Labels field to 1.
    6. uncheck the Skip Un-Named Labels box
    7. increase Smooth parameter to 50
    8. increase Decimate parameter to 0.35
    9. uncheck boxes for Split Normals, Point Normals, Pad
    10. click Apply
    11. Repeat for second labelmap "defect_segfilled"
    12. go to Models module
    13. select both models and change the color by clicking on the Set Color.. field
    14. set Opacity slider for one of the models to ~0.8
  5. Surface Registration
    1. Note that Surface Registration on Slicer version 3.6.3 on some platforms may not operate properly (as of Aug. 2011). Slicer v.3.6.4 is recommended
    2. go to Surface Registration] module
    3. Landmark transform node: select Rigid
    4. Max. number of iterations: increase to 150
    5. max. number of landmarks: increase to 500
    6. check box for start by matching centroids
    7. Input Surface: select "defect_model"
    8. Target Surface: select "intact_model"
    9. Output Transform: select "New Transform", rename to "Xf1_defect-to-intact_Rigid" or similar
    10. click Apply
  6. Go to the Data module
    1. select the "defect_model" node and drag it inside the newly generated transform node
    2. go to the 3D view and drag the mouse to force a display update. You should see the alignment of the two surfaces
    3. to resample: select Harden Transforms from the right-click popup menu associated with the model
    4. to resample image and labelmaps: drag into transform node and also select Harden Transforms , or use the dedicated Resampling module
