An ITK implementation of the Normalized Gradient Field Image to Image Metric
Bottom
No opinion
Wollny G., Ledesma-Carbayo M., Santos A.
This article describes the ITK implementation of a Normalized Gradient Fields based image-to-image metric. Some properties of the metric are discussed and example registrations are presented.

Introducing Dice, Jaccard, and Other Label Overlap Measures To ITK
Bottom

Tustison N., Gee J.
Although the KappaStatisticImageToImageMetric can be used to obtain the Dice metric (or mean overlap), there are other related measurements that are useful for evaluating results derived from various image analysis tasks. These measures include the target [...]

User Guide to The Computational Morphometry Toolkit
Bottom
No opinion
Rohlfing T.
This guide is intended as a very brief introduction of the main tools in the Computational Morphometry Toolkit (CMTK), which is available in source code and as precompiled binaries from http://www.nitrc.org/projects/cmtk/. The target audience of this document [...]

Gaussian Interpolation
Bottom

Yushkevich P., Tustison N., Gee J.
In this submission, we offer the GaussianInterpolationImageFunction which adds to the growing collection of existing interpolation algorithms in ITK for resampling scalar images such as the LinearInterpolateImageFunction, BSplineInterpolateImageFunction, and [...]

An Implementation of Parallel Fast Marching Using the Message Passing Interface
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Hobbs K.
This document introduces a program based on the algorithm described by Maria Cristina Tugurlan. The program uses file readers, image filters, and file writers from the Insight Toolkit ITK www.itk.org. It produces as output an image whose values are the times [...]

An Adaptive Thresholding Image Filter
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Mosaliganti K., Gelas A., Megason S.
An Insight Toolkit (ITK) algorithm for adaptively thresholding images is presented in this paper. Currently, the usage of thresholding methods in ITK has made use of global thresholds, confidence connected thresholds and neighborhood strategies. The current [...]

Importing Contours from DICOM-RT Structure Sets
Bottom

Dowling J., Malaterre M., Greer P.B., Salvado O.
This paper presents parsing software for importing contours from DICOM RT structure set files into binary image files. This is a common requirement for transferring expert manual segmentations from radiotherapy treatment planning software into external image [...]

DicomImport
Bottom

Manniesing R.
We describe a new class itk::DicomDirectoryToImage which, given a directory consisting of raw dicom files, converts all found series to volumetric data with consistent filenaming based on the dicom headers. In addition various internal checks on the dicom [...]

An Optimized N-Dimensional Hough Filter for Detecting Spherical Image Objects
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Mosaliganti K., Gelas A., Cowgill P., Megason S.
An Insight Toolkit (ITK) algorithm for detection of spherical objects using Hough methods with voting is presented in this paper. Currently, the usage of Hough methods for detecting linear and circular elements exists for 2D images in ITK. The current work [...]

New Expectation Maximization Segmentation Pipeline in Slicer 3
Bottom
No opinion
Rannou N., Jaume S., Pieper S., Kikinis R.
Many neuroanatomy studies rely on brain tissue segmentation in Magnetic Resonance images (MRI). The Expectation-Maximization (EM) theory offers a popular framework for this task. We studied the EM algorithm developed at the Surgical Planning Laboratory (SPL) [...]

Local Shape Analysis using MANCOVA
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Paniagua B., Styner M., Macenko M., Pantazis D., Niethammer M.
Gross shape measures such as volume have been widely used in statistical analysis of anatomical structures. Statistical shape analysis methods have emerged within the last decade to allow for a localized analysis of shape. Most shape analysis frameworks are [...]
