Abstract
Methods and systems for segmentation of structures of interest (SOI) in a CT image post-operatively acquired with an implant user in a region of interest in which an implant is implanted. The method includes inputting the post-operatively acquired CT (Post-CT) image to trained networks to generate a dense deformation field (DDF) from the input Post-CT image to an atlas image; and warping a segmentation mesh of the SOI in the atlas image to the input Post-CT image using the DDF so as to generate the segmentation mesh of the SOI in the input Post-CT image, wherein the segmentation mesh of the SOI in the atlas image is generated by applying an active shape model-based method to the atlas image.
