Imbio SET

Imbio Segmentation Editing Tool (SET) Software is a segmentation tool designed to allow users to optimize segmentations calculated by Imbio’s fully-automated suite of algorithms. Imbio is building a suite of medical image post-processing applications that run automatically after data transfer off the medical imaging scanner. Automatic image segmentation is often an essential step in Imbio’s analyses. To date, the automatic segmentation algorithms used in Imbio’s applications have been robust, however segmentation failures do occur. The purpose of the Segmentation Editing Tool is to provide customers with a tool to locally correct poor segmentations. Additionally, if the Imbio automatic segmentation fails such that it is unable to produce a result, this tool can be used to semi-manually draw the segmentation required for analysis. SET reads in anatomical images used in an automatic segmentation algorithm and the results of the automated segmentation algorithm (if available). The user is then able to locally correct insufficiencies in the segmentation result, or create a segmentation mask from scratch. The finalized segmentation mask is then pushed back to Imbio’s Core Computing Platform and the job is re-processed.
