2011-Challenge:Segment-a-spine

Back to 2010 AHM agenda

Introduction

• This is the first in a series of challenges which aim at improving our set of robust interactive segmentation tools.

Atlas reference

If you need anatomical knowledge, please download this atlas with individually labeled vertebrae.

Sample data set

• File:CT crop.zip which is cropped from the full data set below. For reference, L1 has been labeled. Use file load scene to load. The download is 70MB and contains the original data set as well.
• The bottom case in this table is the original location.

The Challenge

• Provide a tool which will segment each vertebra and rib as a separate entity using a different ct data set of comparable quality. It is acceptable to ask the user to point to one or more vertebrae or other structures. The algorithm must comply with "Rons Rules For Tools".
