TLDR
This paper first introduces the basic concepts of image segmentation, then explains different MRI preprocessing steps including image registration, bias field correction, and removal of nonbrain tissue.Abstract:
Image segmentation is one of the most important tasks in medical image analysis and is often the first and the most critical step in many clinical applications. In brain MRI analysis, image segmentation is commonly used for measuring and visualizing the brain’s anatomical structures, for analyzing brain changes, for delineating pathological regions, and for surgical planning and image-guided interventions. In the last few decades, various segmentation techniques of different accuracy and degree of complexity have been developed and reported in the literature. In this paper we review the most popular methods commonly used for brain MRI segmentation. We highlight differences between them and discuss their capabilities, advantages, and limitations. To address the complexity and challenges of the brain MRI segmentation problem, we first introduce the basic concepts of image segmentation. Then, we explain different MRI preprocessing steps including image registration, bias field correction, and removal of nonbrain tissue. Finally, after reviewing different brain MRI segmentation methods, we discuss the validation problem in brain MRI segmentation.read more

VoxResNet: Deep voxelwise residual networks for brain segmentation from 3D MR images
TL;DR: An auto‐context version of the VoxResNet is proposed by combining the low‐level image appearance features, implicit shape information, and high‐level context together for further improving the segmentation performance, and achieved the best performance in the 2013 MICCAI MRBrainS challenge.

TL;DR: A more comprehensive neuroanatomical model of the default-mode network (DMN) including subcortical structures such as the basal forebrain, cholinergic nuclei, anterior and mediodorsal thalamic nuclei is proposed and found that thalamus and basal fore brain are central to the DMN.

A Computational Approach to Edge Detection
TL;DR: There is a natural uncertainty principle between detection and localization performance, which are the two main goals, and with this principle a single operator shape is derived which is optimal at any scale.

Snakes : Active Contour Models
TL;DR: This work uses snakes for interactive interpretation, in which user-imposed constraint forces guide the snake near features of interest, and uses scale-space continuation to enlarge the capture region surrounding a feature.
