Project Description

Objective	Approach and Plan	Progress and Next Steps
The goal of this project is to analyze wrist kinematics from a dynamic MRI sequence. Challenges include segmentation of wrist bones from relatively low resolution MRI with anisotropic voxels, and joint spatiotemporal modeling of extracted bones as a multi-object complex.		3D segmentation of individual bones was solved via level-set segmentation within itkSNAP. Preliminary tests with Slicer GrowCut were not satisfactory due to highly non-isotropic voxels, but more tests will be necessary to explore new advanced features within "Segment Editor".
