Interactive medical image segmentation with seed precomputation system: Data from the Osteoarthritis Initiative

Although interactive segmentation helps lower the degree of human intervention, further upgrade to increase the efficiency and intuitiveness of interactive segmentation method remains requisite. Invariably, newly acquired medical images are not segmented instantly by radiologists due to heavy work l...
