From: Reproducibility and repeatability of a semi-automated pipeline to quantify trapeziometacarpal joint angles using dynamic computed tomography

Fig. 2

Processing pipeline for binarizing the TMC joint from HR-pQCT scans. The pipeline outlined is run for the first metacarpal and trapezium separately. The segmentation pipeline is semi-automated, only requiring manual intervention if the automated segmentation cannot differentiate between the first metacarpal and trapezium bones due to narrow joint space. The binary threshold (t) is provided in Hounsfield Units (HU) and the kernel size (k) for binary morphological operations are provided for the first metacarpal (MC1) and trapezium (TRP)
