Hello,
does anybody know a way to segment Lungs from mri-dataset? I foud many ways to segment them in CT, but not in MR.
I tried the otsu and the k-means methods, but the heart is alway segmented with the lungs

I would love that, but unfortunately I can't share anything because of privacy issues :(
the code, that you posted ist for CT-segmentation, did I understood it right?

That's what the filename indicates. I haven't looked at it in a long time. Good luck. I'll be back in 3 or 4 days.

Hi there, I recently segmented the lungs/the thoracic cavity from thoracic MRI scan images using activecontours to create lung masks. My basic approach is:
% 1. Import your mri image e.g.
X = dicomread(fullfile(folderPath, maskfile.name));
% 2. adjust image & grayscale levels
X = imadjust(X);
GS = im2gray(X);
% 3. Adaptive grayscale thresholding (find a suitable threshold value for your images)
meanGL = mean(GS(:));
BW = GS > 0.75*meanGL; % example
% 4. Apply activecontours
BWMask = activecontour(X,BW,100,"chan-vese",...
"ContractionBias",-0.1,"SmoothFactor",0.05); % adjust contraction bias depending on grayscale level
BWMask = rescale(BWMask);
% 5. Invert the mask (imcomplement), binarize, remove borders then select the lungs based on geometrical properties
Sample mask output (Left) and superimposed on the respective scan image (Right):
Hope this helps and feel free to reach out for the full solution!

You forgot to attach an image that your algorithm works well on. Can you do so? Can you also please attach the full solution (m-file)?

Attached! I was just waiting on confirmation from a research group that I can share sample mask images as I wrote this code for the segmentation and analysis of their MRI images. Please also see some declassified sample output mask images from the documentation for my code bundle:
Active contours works well for this image set. There is no need to manually select seed points and only the occasional mask where parts of the thoracic boundary are blurred/blend into the stomach cavity required manual editing. I also developed and applied a vessel filter to the masks after active contour segmentation.
All proof of original work can be provided.
