How to get a mesh from an MRI image?#

Loading data#

Following How to visualize MRI data?, we start by getting the image data.

[3]:
SESSION_ID = 1
[4]:
loader = MriLoader(subset=[SESSION_ID], as_image=True)

pipe = loader + ppdict.ExtractUniqueKey()
[5]:
img_fdata = pipe()
INFO: Data has already been downloaded... using cached file ('/home/luisfpereira/.herbrain/data/pregnancy/raw/mri').

Marching cubes#

We now use marching cubes and transform the output to pyvista.PolyData for visualization.

[6]:
mesh_from_image = SkimageMarchingCubes()
[7]:
mesh = (mesh_from_image + PvFromData())(img_fdata)

Visualization#

[8]:
pl = pv.Plotter(border=False)

pl.show_axes()
pl.add_mesh(mesh, show_edges=True)
pl.show()
../../../_images/_notebooks_how_to_all_mri2mesh_13_0.png

Segmented data#

Load the segmented data.

[9]:
pipe = (
    HippocampalSubfieldsSegmentationsLoader(subset=[SESSION_ID], as_image=True)
    + ppdict.ExtractUniqueKey()
)
[10]:
img_fdata = pipe()
INFO: Data has already been downloaded... using cached file ('/home/luisfpereira/.herbrain/data/pregnancy/derivatives/segmentations').

The process changes only slightly when the data is segmented. (NB: encoding informs about the tool used for segmentation, which matters to map ids to tool ids and colors.)

[11]:
img2mesh = (
    MeshExtractorFromSegmentedImage(
        return_colors=True,
        encoding="ashs",
    )
    + PvFromData()
)

mesh = img2mesh(img_fdata)
[12]:
pl = pv.Plotter(border=False)

pl.show_axes()
pl.add_mesh(mesh, show_edges=True)
pl.show()
../../../_images/_notebooks_how_to_all_mri2mesh_20_0.png

For example, we can select a particular subfield of the hippocampus.

[13]:
img2mesh = (
    MeshExtractorFromSegmentedImage(
        struct_id="PostHipp", return_colors=False, encoding="ashs"
    )
    + PvFromData()
)

mesh = img2mesh(img_fdata)
[14]:
pl = pv.Plotter(border=False)

pl.show_axes()
pl.add_mesh(mesh, show_edges=True)
pl.show()
../../../_images/_notebooks_how_to_all_mri2mesh_23_0.png
