Title
Random walks for interactive organ segmentation in two and three dimensions: implementation and validation.
Abstract
A new approach to interactive segmentation based on random walks was recently introduced that shows promise for allowing physicians more flexibility to segment arbitrary objects in an image. This report has two goals: To introduce a novel computational method for applying the random walker algorithm in 2D/3D using the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) and to provide quantitative validation studies of this algorithm relative to different targets, imaging modalities and interaction strategies.
