NAME
vclav − clavicle segmentation
SYNOPSISvclav if= ig= res= of= [sf=] [-v] [-d]
DESCRIPTIONvclav segments the clavicle from a non-contrast chest CT scan. The inputs include a byte image of bone candidates and a byte image of organ map including clavicle seed candidates (as 1), airway (as 2) and lung (as 3). It first locates one seed point for each(left or right) of the clavicles by searching for the most superior seed candidate pixels that are lateral to the airway. The anterior clavicles (anterior to the seeds) are obtained by sequential 2D region region growing of bone candidate pixels in the vertical direction. The posterior clavicles (posterior to the seeds) are obtained by fitting a cylindrical envelope to the bone candidate pixels for each of the clavicles.
