Detailed Description

Generates interpolations of 2D slices.

There is a separate page describing the general design of QmitkInteractiveSegmentation: QmitkInteractiveSegmentationTechnicalPage

This class keeps track of the contents of a 3D segmentation image.

Attention
mitk::SliceBasedInterpolationController assumes that the image contains pixel values of 0 and 1.

After you set the segmentation image using SetSegmentationVolume(), the whole image is scanned for pixels other than 0. SliceBasedInterpolationController registers as an observer to the segmentation image, and repeats the scan whenvever the image is modified.

You can prevent this (time consuming) scan if you do the changes slice-wise and send difference images to SliceBasedInterpolationController. For this purpose SetChangedSlice() should be used. mitk::OverwriteImageFilter already does this every time it changes a slice of an image. There is a static method InterpolatorForImage(), which can be used to find out if there already is an interpolator instance for a specified image. OverwriteImageFilter uses this to get to know its interpolator.

SliceBasedInterpolationController needs to maintain some information about the image slices (in every dimension). This information is stored internally in m_SegmentationCountInSlice, which is basically three std::vectors (one for each dimension). Each item describes one image dimension, each vector item holds the count of pixels in "its" slice. This is perhaps better to understand from the following picture (where red items just mean to symbolize "there is some segmentation" - in reality there is an integer count).

Parameters
imageis a 3D image with the difference image of the slice determined by sliceDimension and sliceIndex. The difference is (pixel value in the new slice minus pixel value in the old slice).
timeStepWhich time step is changed Generates an interpolated image for the given slice.
sliceDimensionNumber of the dimension which is constant for all pixels of the meant slice.
sliceIndexWhich slice to take, in the direction specified by sliceDimension. Count starts from 0.
timeStepWhich time step to use

mitk::SliceBasedInterpolationController * mitk::SliceBasedInterpolationController::InterpolatorForImage ( const Image image)
static

Find interpolator for a given image.

Returns
NULL if there is no interpolator yet.

This method is useful if several "clients" modify the same image and want to access the interpolations. Then they can share the same object.

Parameters
imageis a 2D image with the difference image of the slice determined by sliceDimension and sliceIndex. The difference is (pixel value in the new slice minus pixel value in the old slice).
sliceDimensionNumber of the dimension which is constant for all pixels of the meant slice.
sliceIndexWhich slice to take, in the direction specified by sliceDimension. Count starts from 0.

void mitk::SliceBasedInterpolationController::SetReferenceImage ( Image image)

Set a reference image (original patient image) - optional.

If this image is set (must exactly match the dimensions of the segmentation), the interpolation algorithm may consider image content to improve the interpolated (estimated) segmentation.

void mitk::SliceBasedInterpolationController::SetWorkingImage ( LabelSetImage image)

Initialize with a whole volume.

Will scan the volume for segmentation pixels (values other than 0) and fill some internal data structures. You don't have to call this method every time something changes, but only when several slices at once change.

When you change a single slice, call SetChangedSlice() instead.

Member Data Documentation

LabelCounterSliceTimeVectorType mitk::SliceBasedInterpolationController::m_LabelCountInSlice
protected

An array that of flags. One for each dimension of the image. A flag is set, when a slice in a certain dimension has at least one pixel that is not 0 (which would mean that it has to be considered by the interpolation algorithm). E.g. flags for axial slices are stored in m_SegmentationCountInSlice[0][index]. Enhanced with time steps it is now m_SegmentationCountInSlice[timeStep][0][index]
