Preprocessing script about isbi2018_petct_segmentation HOT 2 OPEN

Hey @zhongzisha,
Can you share a script for an end to end segmentation generation given a raw CT and PET registered volumes?

Thank you

Apologize for this late reply!

Unfortunately, I do not have the script at hand. These works were completed when I worked as a postdoc at the University of Iowa. And I do not have the permissions/rights to share all those things.

In fact, some preprocessing steps (such as patient management, PET-CT registration, etc.) were being done in laboratory of the hospital using the commercial software (Thanks to the University of Iowa Hospitals & Clinics). The software can also provide the converted PET SUV volumes (from DICOM intensity value to SUV value). We just need to export them from the database for subsequent processing and analysis.

With regarding to the PET SUV computation, please refer to the NCI-QIICR project (http://qiicr.org/tool/PETDICOM/), they have introduced an implementation as an extension for the open source 3D Slicer software (https://www.slicer.org/).

When doing the medical image/information computing, I suggest having collaborations with clinical experts/doctors for their expertise in medical/clinical knowledge.
