The invention relates to a system and computer-implemented method for enabling correction of a segmentation of an anatomical structure in 3D image data. The segmentation may be provided by a mesh which is applied to the 3D image data to segment the anatomical structure. The correction may for example involve a user directly or indirectly selecting a mesh part, such as a mesh point, that needs to be corrected. The behaviour of the correction, e.g., in terms of direction, radius/neighbourhood or strength, may then be dependent on the mesh normal direction, and in some embodiments, on a difference between the mesh normal direction and the orientation of the viewing plane.

A modulated segmentation system can use a modulator network to emphasize spatial prior data of an object to track the object across multiple images. The modulated segmentation system can use a segmentation network that receives spatial prior data as intermediate data that improves segmentation accuracy. The segmentation network can further receive visual guide information from a visual guide network to increase tracking accuracy via segmentation.

The invention relates to a computer-implemented medical data processing method for determining a mapping of medical image content into a reference system, the method comprising executing, on a processor of a computer, steps of: a) acquiring, at the processor, medical image data describing a digital medical image of an anatomical structure of a patient's body; b) acquiring, at the processor, image attribute data describing attribute information associated with the medical image data, the attribute information including an indication of an initial reference system in which spatial relationships of the digital medical image are defined; c) acquiring, at the processor, reference system transformation data describing a spatial relationship (REG) between the initial reference system and a second reference system which is different from the initial reference system; d) determining, by the processor and based on the medical image data and the reference system transformation data, transformed image data describing a representation of the digital medical image in the second reference system.

A system comprises an encoder configured to compress attribute information and/or spatial for a point cloud and/or a decoder configured to decompress compressed attribute and/or spatial information for the point cloud. To compress the attribute and/or spatial information, the encoder is configured to convert a point cloud into an image based representation. Also, the decoder is configured to generate a decompressed point cloud based on an image based representation of a point cloud. Additionally, an encoder is configured to signal and/or a decoder is configured to receive a supplementary message comprising volumetric tiling information that maps portions of 2D image representations to objects in the point. In some embodiments, characteristics of the object may additionally be signaled using the supplementary message or additional supplementary messages.
