[Insight-users] the code for Lorigo's level set method

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Jian,

The implementation of GeodesicActiveContours
available in ITK is based on the paper by
Cassells et al.:


  "Geodesic Active Contours",
  V. Caselles, R. Kimmel and G. Sapiro.
  International Journal on Computer Vision,
  Vol 22, No. 1, pp 61-97, 1997

This method is also decribed in Sethian's book
on Level Sets and Fast Marching methods.

We have applied this method succesfully for
segmenting MRA's.  Notice that as many of the
level set approaches, most of the art is
related to the adequate preprocessing of the
input images.

Details about this filter are available in
the SoftwareGuide.pdf

http://www.itk.org/ItkSoftwareGuide.pdf

Section 8.3.3, pdf-page 276.

The code (as every thing in ITK) is available
through http://www.itk.org

Just follow the links to the Download page.


Please let us know if you have further questions.


Thanks


Luis
