NAME

       mia-2dsegseriesstats - Evaluate time-intensity curves in masked regions of image series.

SYNOPSIS

       mia-2dsegseriesstats -o <original> -g <registered> [options]

DESCRIPTION

       mia-2dsegseriesstats  This program is used evaluate various time-intensity curves over a series of images
       given by a segmentation set. Specifically, the program is taylored to evaluate  average  intensities  and
       variations of sections the left ventricle myocardium. The segmentation set must contain the segmentations
       for all slices that will be accessed during evaluation.

OPTIONS

              -o --original=(input, required); string
                     original segmentation set

              -g --registered=(input, required); string
                     registered segmentation set

              -k --skip=2
                     images  to skip at the begin of the series, if (k < 0) use RV peak of the registered set if
                     setimages to skip at the begin of the series, if (k < 0) use RV peak of the registered  set
                     if set

              -r --reference=-1
                     reference  frame  for  automatic  curve extraction. Negative values can be used to indicate
                     specific values (if given in the segmentation set):
                        -3: Middle of the series
                        -2: prefererred reference
                        -1: LV peak if any of the above is not available or the value is  <  -3,  use  the  last
                     frame  of the series.reference frame for automatic curve extraction. Negative values can be
                     used to indicate specific values (if given in the segmentation set):
                        -3: Middle of the series
                        -2: prefererred reference
                        -1: LV peak if any of the above is not available or the value is  <  -3,  use  the  last
                     frame of the series.

              -c --curves=(output); string
                     region  average  value curves, The output files each comprises a table in plain-text format
                     that contains three columns for each  section  of  the  LV  myocardium:  The  first  column
                     contains  the  values  obtained  by using the original segmentation of the reference on all
                     images of the original series, the second  column  contains  the  values  obtained  by  the
                     registered  segmentation  of  the reference on all images of the registered series, and the
                     third column contains the values obtained by using the segmentations of each slice  on  the
                     original images.

              -v --varcurves=(output); string
                     region variation values, same formt as described above.

                     number  of  sections  to use, 0=use as segmented, otherwise Otherwise, the LV myocardium is
                     divided into n sections that enclose equal angles starting at the right ventricle insertion

EXAMPLE

       Evaluate  the  two  curve  typed for 12 sections from segemntation sets orig.set and reg.set skipping the
       first 2 frames. The output will be written to curves.txt and varcurves.txt respectively.
