Joint Space Width Module
The Joint Space Width module is used to create a mask of the joint space between two bones and determine the maximum, minimum, and average width.
[Module is currently in development]
Paramaters:
- Input Volume: Input grayscale image
- Input Contour: Contour mask of input image
- Second Contour (optional): Include if there are middle and proximal masks for the image
- Output Volume: Output image
- Lower Threshold: Lower threshold of bone
- Upper Threshold: Upper threshold of bone
- Dilate/Erode Distance: Approximate distance between the bones, used for dilate and erode operations
This tool creates a mask of the space between the joints. The generated mask can be used in Step 2 to determine the joint space width.
Parameters:
- Joint Space Mask: Mask of the joint region
- Output Volume: [Used for testing]
- Output Table: Statistics table
This tool examines the joint space mask generated in Step 1 to find the width of the joint. The maximum, minimum, and average width are stored in the output table.
