Abstract

Planning a deep brain stimulation surgery in Parkinson disease is a critical task because the medical team needs to accurately locate the basal ganglia area (i.e. sub-thalamus) in a magnetic resonance image study. This paper proposes a new method for shape prior information based on the Chan-Vese model and Bayesian shape models for brain structure segmentation on magnetic resonance images. The method allows to initialize efficiently a given shape by fitting an active contour (Chan-Vese model), and then robustly fits a brain structure, performing a Bayesian shape fitting. The experimental results show that the proposed model can effectively segment a brain structure. Also, the proposed model, provides a fast segmentation which improves the computational cost compared with common segmentation techniques such as active shape models.
