   Keywords : Medical physics; Anatomical segmentation; Brain; MRI; 7 Tesla; Pincram; MAPER; Shape based averaging; Ultrahigh resolution;

   Abstract : Purpose: The purpose of this work was to find out how the existing brain atlases and segmentation algorithms perform when applied to ultrahigh-resolution MR brain images, acquired with a 7-Tesla scanner. Also to make adaptations to deal with the potential challenges and evaluate the quality of the anatomical segmentations of the 7- Tesla images. READ MORE

3. 2. Characterization of discrepancies between manual and automatic segmentation to improve anatomical brain atlases

   University essay from

   Author : Anna Sörensson; [2021-05-10]
   Keywords : Medical physics; Anatomical brain atlas; Image segmentation; Image registration;

   Abstract : Purpose: To characterize discrepancies between expert manually segmented brain images from Hammers Atlas Database and automatically generated segmentations of the same images; to decide whether they can be attributed to flaws in the automatic segmentation or in the manual segmentation; and to determine general rules that enable these decisions. Theory: Image segmentation plays an important role in clinical neuroscience and experimental medicine for extraction of information from medical images, and it is a fundamental image processing step in medical image analysis.
