Novel stochastic framework for automatic segmentation of human thigh MRI volumes and its applications in spinal cord injured individuals.

Severe spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to skeletal muscle atrophy and adipose tissue infiltration in the skeletal muscle, which can result in compromised muscle mechanical output and lead to health-related complications. In this study, we developed a novel automatic 3-D approach for volumetric segmen...
