Abstract

Multi-atlas segmentation propagation has evolved quickly in recent years, becoming a state-of-the-art method for automatic struc- tural parcellation for brain MRI. However, few studies have applied these methods to preclinical research. In this study, we present a fully auto- matic multi-atlas segmentation pipeline for mouse brain MRI tissue par- cellation. The pipeline adopts the Multi-STEPS multi-atlas segmentation algorithm, which utilises a locally normalised cross correlation (LNCC) similarity metric for atlas selection and an extended STAPLE frame- work for multi-label fusion. The segmentation accuracy of the pipeline was evaluated using an in vivo mouse brain atlas with pre-segmented manual labels as gold standard, and optimised parameters were obtained. Results show a mean Dice similarity coefficient of 0.839 over all the struc- tures and for all the samples in the database, significantly higher than in a single atlas propagation strategy, and also generally higher than STAPLE strategy, although the improvement is not significant.
