Abstract:
We introduce a software system for semi-automatic segmentation of the patellar cartilage. By providing tools for sub-pixel accurate edge tracing, automatic contour completion, and adequate visualization we achieve a remarkable speed-up of the physician’s segmentation process. Our results show the exactness that can be reached for cartilage segmentation if expertise and automation are merged in a meaningful way.
