Fig. 7From: Vertebra segmentation based on two-step refinement3D interpolations of the coarse and fine segmentation results. The first and second rows correspond to lumbar (L4) and thoracic (T11) vertebrae processing, respectively. The first column represents the result of the Carving method (Algorithm 2), and the second column contains the results after the HMC segmentation (Algorithm 5). Note that the observed granularity corresponds to the voxel size, which is the minimal size addressed in this workBack to article page
