Alternative Memory Models for ITK Images
Bottom
No opinion
Mueller D.
By default ITK images use a contiguous memory model. This means pixel elements are stored in a single 1-D array, where each element is adjacent in memory to the previous element. However in some situations it is not desirable to use this memory model. This [...]

Rotational Registration of Spherical Surfaces Represented as QuadEdge Meshes
Bottom

Ibanez L., Audette M., Yeo B.T., Golland P.
This document describes a contribution to the Insight Toolkit intended to support the process of registering two Meshes. The methods included here are restricted to Meshes with a Spherical geometry and topology, and with scalar values associated to their [...]

Dru F., Vercauteren T.
This article provides an implementation of the symmetric log-domain diffeomorphic image registration algorithm, or symmetric demons algorithm for short. It generalizes Thirion's demons and the diffeomorphic demons algorithm. The main practical advantages of [...]

Numerical Q-Ball Image Reconstruction: an ITK Implementation
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Fritzsche K.H., Meinzer H.
This document describes an implementation of David S. Tuch's numerical Q-Ball reconstruction algorithm implemented using the Insight Toolkit ITK (www.itk.org). The document is accompanied with the source code, input data, parameters and output data that were [...]

Cell Tracking using Coupled Active Surfaces for Nuclei and Membranes
Bottom
No opinion
Mosaliganti K., Smith B., Gelas A., Gouaillard A., Megason S.
An Insight Toolkit (ITK) processing framework for segmenting and tracking nuclei in time-lapse microscopy images using coupled active contours is presented in this paper. We implement the method of Dufour et al.[2] to segment and track cells in fluorescence [...]

Automatic Branch Decomposition for Tubular Structures
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Xiong G., Xing L., Taylor C.
Branches of tubular structures (vasculature, trachea, neuron, etc.) in medical images are critical for the topology of these structures. In many applications, It is very helpful to be able to decompose tubular structures and identify every individual [...]

N4ITK:  Nick's N3 ITK Implementation For MRI Bias Field Correction
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Tustison N., Gee J.
Several algorithms exist for correcting the nonuniform intensity in magnetic resonance images caused by field inhomogeneities. These algorithms constitute important preprocessing steps for subsequent image analysis tasks. One such algorithm, known as [...]

Automatic Junction Detection for Tubular Structures
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Xiong G., Xing L., Taylor C.
Junctions of tubular structures (vasculature, trachea, neuron, etc) in medical images are critical for the topology of these structures. Identification of them is helpful in many applications. For example, quantification of geometric vascular features, [...]

Level Set Segmentation: Active Contours without edge
Bottom
starstarstarstarstar
Mosaliganti K., Smith B., Gelas A., Gouaillard A., Megason S.
An Insight Toolkit (ITK) processing framework for segmentation using active contours without edges is presented in this paper. Our algorithm is based on the work of Chan and Vese [1] that uses level- sets to accomplish region segmentation in images with [...]

level set segmentation using coupled active surfaces
Bottom
No opinion
Mosaliganti K., Smith B., Gelas A., Gouaillard A., Megason S.
An Insight Toolkit (ITK) processing framework for simultaneous segmentation of multiple objects using active contours without edges is presented in this paper. These techniques are also popularly referred to as multiphase methods. Earlier, we had an [...]

Microscopy Image Analysis: Blob Segmentation using Geodesic Active Contours
Bottom
No opinion
Mosaliganti K., Gelas A., Gouaillard A., Megason S.
An Insight Toolkit (ITK) processing framework for blob segmentation with applications to microscopy images is presented in this paper. Our algorithm is a refinement of the work of Mosaliganti et al. [3] for splitting cell clusters. The basic idea is to [...]
