The {{documentation/modulename}} is designed to segment tumors from DCE-MRI datasets which include pre-contrast image and post-contrast images at different time points. {{documentation/modulename}} uses blackbox methods to calculate the wash-in and wash-out slopes from the time-intensity curves. The segmentation output is a Label Map with red, yellow, and blue colors respectively identifying washout (Type III), plateau (Type II), and persistent (Type I) voxels.

*Only Voxels with a percent increase from pre-contrast to the first post-contrast time point greater than the Minimum Threshold of Increase (default = 75.00%) are considered for segmentation and classification.
 
*Slope of delayed curve for each voxel is calculated as (Intensity at 4th time point - Intensity at 1st time point) / (Intensity at 1st time point).
 
*Segmented voxels are individually classified by color according to slope of delayed curve:
 
**Blue for Persistent curve
 
***Slope of delayed curve > 0.2 (default) (Type I)
 
**Yellow for Plateau curve
 
***-0.2 < Slope of delayed curve < 0.2 (Type II)
 
**Red for Washout curve
 
***Slope of delayed curve < -0.2 (default) (Type III)

Extension Description

  • The SegmentCAD modules is designed to segment tumors from DCE-MRI datasets which include pre-contrast image and post-contrast images at different time points. OpenCAD uses blackbox methods to calculate the wash-in and wash-out slopes from the time-intensity curves. The segmentation output is a Label Map with red, yellow, and blue colors respectively identifying washout (Type III), plateau (Type II), and persistent (Type I) voxels.
  • The HeterogeneityCAD module is under development and will apply metrics to analyze the heterogeneity of tumor images and their parameter maps.
