Abstract
A method for segmenting bone in spectral image data is described herein. The spectral image data includes at least a first set of image data corresponding to a first energy and second set of image data corresponding to a second different energy. The method includes obtaining the spectral image data. The method further includes extracting a set of features for each voxel in spectral image data. The method further includes determining, for each voxel, a probability that each voxel represents bone structure based on the set of features. The method further includes extracting bone structure from the spectral image data based on the probabilities.
