Module Description
This module can be used in order to compute bone morphometry features of an input image. The computation of the bone morphometry features is based on a binary segmentation of the whole image and it based on the itk remote module: itkBoneMorphometry itkBoneMorphometry.
The following Bone Morphompetry Features are computed:
- percent bone volume [BVTV]
- trabecular thickness [TbTh]
- trabecular separation [TbSp]
- trabecular number [TbN]
- Bone Surface to Bone Volume ratio [BSBV]
Use Cases
|
- Inputs:
- Input volume [index: 0] : Input Volume
- Input mask [-s --inputMask] (None) : A mask defining the region over which texture features will be calculated
- Inside Mask Value [-i --inputMask] (1) : The pixel value that defines the ”inside” of the mask
- Threshold [-i --inputMask] (0) : The threshold value that will be used for the binary segmentation of the image
- Neighborhood radius [-n --neighborhoodRadius] (4) : The size of the neighborhood radius
- Outputs:
- BVTV [output] : percent bone volume feature value
- TbTh [output] : trabecular thickness feature value
- TbSp [output] : trabecular separation feature value
- TbN [output] :trabecular number feature value
- BSBV [output] : Bone Surface to Bone Volume ratio feature value
- Advanced:
- Output Vector [output] : Output vector containing all the feature value stored in the same order than previously
