When placing the bubbles for a level-set segmentation, great care has to be takes in order to produce the optimal seeding. We want to create bubbles that are entirely inside the structure of interest. A clever way to proceed is placing the bubbles as far away as possible from suspected leaking points in the feature image ([[Slicer3:Modules:Target_Preprocessing-Documentation|Target Preprocessing]] should run before this module).

General Information

This module builds a label image made of bubbles from a set of fiducials and a vector of radii. It is intended for use in combination with the interactive level-set evolution module, providing initialization for the evolution.

Module Type & Category

Type: CLI Category: Level-Set Segmentation

Module Description

This module takes as input a set of fiducials, a vector of floats for the radii of the bubbles in physical units, a reference image on which the bubbles will take place, a label for the resulting label map. It provides a label image with spheres centered on the fiducials with radius corresponding to the radii vector position corresponding to the number of the concerned fiducial in the fiducial set.

When placing the bubbles for a level-set segmentation, great care has to be takes in order to produce the optimal seeding. We want to create bubbles that are entirely inside the structure of interest. A clever way to proceed is placing the bubbles as far away as possible from suspected leaking points in the feature image (Target Preprocessing should run before this module).
