Automatic Thalamus Segmentation from Magnetic Resonance Images Using Multiple Atlases Level Set Framework (MALSF)

Abstract In this paper, we present an original multiple atlases level set framework (MALSF) for automatic, accurate and robust thalamus segmentation in magnetic resonance images (MRI). The contributions of the MALSF method are twofold. First, the main technical contribution is a novel label fusion s...
