摘要
When performing model-based segmentation on a 3D patient image (80), metal artifacts in the patient image (80), caused by metal in the patient's body, are detected, and a metal artifact reduction technique is performed to reduce the artifact(s) by interpolation projection data in the region of the artifact(s). The interpolated data is used to generate an uncertainty map for artifact-affected voxels in the image, and a mesh model (78) is conformed to the image to facilitate segmentation thereof. Internal and external energies applied to push and pull the model (78) are weighted as a function of the uncertainty associated with one or more voxels in the image (80). Iteratively, mathematical representations of the energies and respective weights are solved to describe an updated model shape that more closely aligns to the image (80).
