Durch die Alkalität des Betons wird Betonstahl dauerhaft vor Korrosion geschützt. Infolge von Chlorideintrag kann dieser Schutz nicht länger aufrechterhalten werden und führt zu Lochkorrosion. Die zerstörungsfreie Prüfung von Stahlbetonproben mit 3D-CT bietet die Möglichkeit, eine Probe mehrfach gezielt vorzuschädigen und den Korrosionsfortschritt zu untersuchen. Zur Quantifizierung des Schädigungsgrades müssen die bei dieser Untersuchung anfallenden großen Bilddaten mit Bildverarbeitungsmethoden ausgewertet werden. Ein wesentlicher Schritt dabei ist die Segmentierung der Bilddaten, bei der zwischen Korrosionsprodukt (Rost), Betonstahl (BSt), Beton, Rissen, Poren und Umgebung unterschieden werden muss. Diese Segmentierung bildet die Grundlage für statistische Untersuchungen des Schädigungsfortschritts. Hierbei sind die Änderung der BSt-Geometrie, die Zunahme von Korrosionsprodukten und deren Veränderung über die Zeit sowie ihrer räumlichen Verteilung in der Probe von Interesse. Aufgrund der Größe der CT-Bilddaten ist eine manuelle Segmentierung nicht durchführbar, so dass automatische Verfahren unabdingbar sind. Dabei ist insbesondere die Segmentierung der Korrosionsprodukte in den Bilddaten ein schwieriges Problem. Allein aufgrund der Grauwerte ist eine Zuordnung nahezu unmöglich, denn die Grauwerte von Beton und Korrosionsprodukt unterscheiden sich kaum. Eine formbasierte Suche ist nicht offensichtlich, da die Korrosionsprodukte in Beton diffuse Formen haben. Allerdings lässt sich Vorwissen über die Ausbreitung der Korrosionsprodukte nutzen. Sie bilden sich in räumlicher Nähe des BSt (in Bereichen vorheriger Volumenabnahme des BSt), entlang von Rissen sowie in Porenräumen, die direkt am BSt und in dessen Nahbereich liegen. Davon ausgehend wird vor der Korrosionsprodukterkennung zunächst eine BSt-Volumen-, Riss- und Porenerkennung durchgeführt. Dieser in der Arbeit näher beschriebene Schritt erlaubt es, halbautomatisch Startpunkte (Seed Points) für die Korrosionsprodukterkennung zu finden. Weiterhin werden verschiedene in der Bildverarbeitung bekannte Algorithmen auf ihre Eignung untersucht werden.

A1 - Baum, Daniel T1 - Automated Segmentation of Complex Patterns in Biological Tissues: Lessons from Stingray Tessellated Cartilage N2 - Introduction – Many biological structures show recurring tiling patterns on one structural level or the other. Current image acquisition techniques are able to resolve those tiling patterns to allow quantitative analyses. The resulting image data, however, may contain an enormous number of elements. This renders manual image analysis infeasible, in particular when statistical analysis is to be conducted, requiring a larger number of image data to be analyzed. As a consequence, the analysis process needs to be automated to a large degree. In this paper, we describe a multi-step image segmentation pipeline for the automated segmentation of the calcified cartilage into individual tesserae from computed tomography images of skeletal elements of stingrays. Methods – Besides applying state-of-the-art algorithms like anisotropic diffusion smoothing, local thresholding for foreground segmentation, distance map calculation, and hierarchical watershed, we exploit a graph-based representation for fast correction of the segmentation. In addition, we propose a new distance map that is computed only in the plane that locally best approximates the calcified cartilage. This distance map drastically improves the separation of individual tesserae. We apply our segmentation pipeline to hyomandibulae from three individuals of the round stingray (Urobatis halleri), varying both in age and size. Results – Each of the hyomandibula datasets contains approximately 3000 tesserae. To evaluate the quality of the automated segmentation, four expert users manually generated ground truth segmentations of small parts of one hyomandibula. These ground truth segmentations allowed us to compare the segmentation quality w.r.t. individual tesserae. Additionally, to investigate the segmentation quality of whole skeletal elements, landmarks were manually placed on all tesserae and their positions were then compared to the segmented tesserae. With the proposed segmentation pipeline, we sped up the processing of a single skeletal element from days or weeks to a few hours.
