Plugin for OsiriX: Mean Shift Segmentation
Silvia Vides Canas, Joaquín Azpiroz Leehan, J.R Jimenez Alaniz · Conference proceedings · 2007
Open source and plugin-based software provide the possibilities for a flexible and free transportation of algorithms to final users. In medical image processing, OsiriX is an instance of the fulfillment of this potential. This work presents the plugin implementation of the mean shift segmentation algorithm. It presents the modeling of the methodology using Object-Oriented tools, as a part of software development process. The resultant models have been represented through Unified Modeling Language (UML). The model parts have been implemented and proved as an OsiriX plugin, helping bridge the divide between algorithms devised in research laboratories and the application of these tools in the clinical setting.
