Project Description
Objective
- Develop a module in 3D Slicer to segment the ground glass opacity (GGO) tumor, apply HeterogeneityCAD to obtain imaging metrics and classify the GGO.
- Provide the module as an extension part of OpenCAD
Approach, Plan
- Implement a simple region growing algorithm
- Apply HeterogeneityCAD module
- Use predetermined SVM classifier to decide the lesion type
Progress
- Completed analysis for 248 GGOs and trained SVM with an accuracy of 89% to classify GGOs
- Developed the framework for the LungCAD module in Slicer
- Evaluate the Lesion segmentation algorithm as part of the Chest Imaging Platform
- Segmentation works well and is able to prevent the segmentation of vessels running through the lesion
- LungCAD will call Lesion Segmentation CLI for segmentation and HeterogeneityCAD to evaluate features
- Pre-processed SVM will be utilized to classify the GGOs
