1. Corpus Callosum Segmentation Tool Project Martin Styner Department of Computer Science & Psychiatry Neuro Image Analysis Laboratory

2. 2 Motivation of Corpus Callosum Segmentation Study of CC morphometry –Improved understanding of neuro- developmental diseases –Corpus callosum different in autistic children from healthy controls –Development studies 6mt - 4y Segmentation?

3. 3 Segmentation Active Shape Model based segmentation –C code in antiquated environment (AVS) on solaris Cumbersome interactive and automatic mode

4. 4 Goals of the Project Porting software into “modern” C++ based framework GUI development from scratch –Interactive and automatic modes All open source implementation –Use of ITK, VTK, KWWidgets –Dissemination through NIAL website –Stand-alone and external module to Slicer 3
