论文摘要
这项工作提出了一个针对患者特定表征的脊柱表征的框架，该框架将有关组织的信息与有关脊柱形态的几何信息整合在一起。关键要素是从3D CT图像中提取每个椎骨的3D患者特异性模型和椎间盘空间，在其三个功能区域中对每个椎骨进行了分割，以及基于几何参数的功能区域中组织条件的分析。在结果中获得的异常的定位和提出的可视化支持我们工具在定量和视觉评估可能损害，手术计划以及早期诊断或后续研究的适用性。最后，我们讨论了拟议框架的主要特性，以表征脊柱区基准的脊柱形态和病理学的表征。
This work proposes a framework for the patient-specific characterization of the spine, which integrates information on the tissues with geometric information on the spine morphology. Key elements are the extraction of 3D patient-specific models of each vertebra and the intervertebral space from 3D CT images, the segmentation of each vertebra in its three functional regions, and the analysis of the tissue condition in the functional regions based on geometrical parameters. The localization of anomalies obtained in the results and the proposed visualization support the applicability of our tool for quantitative and visual evaluation of possible damages, for surgery planning, and early diagnosis or follow-up studies. Finally, we discuss the main properties of the proposed framework in terms of characterisation of the morphology and pathology of the spine on benchmarks of the spine district.
