Hello, I'd like to extract soft tissue information from CT scans, in particular a fibro-cartilagineous tissue. Would you be so kind to suggest me a proper threshold range?
What is location of scans? Possible it will be better to use other approach. Global thresholding gives all pixels in the defined range, no matter their position on image
Basically I'd like to extract the contour of the articular disc of the temporomandibular joint if it is possible. I know MRI id preferrable in this case, but I have only CT scans thus I have to find a method to test this possibility.
the HU must be between 70-90 HU. unfortunatly the surrounding structures ( like muscles) have the same density. Then i dont think that you can exctract the temporomandibular joint by this method. For me the only way to do such a task is to work slice by slice by contouring the zone of interest
