The definition of regions or volumes of interest and the delineation of objects of interest are important and frequently performed tasks in clinical imaging. However, today's solutions for this task are often time-consuming and cumbersome for the clinician. The present invention provides an alternative approach that is intuitive and works even for noisy images where automatic segmentation approaches usually fail. The disclosed systems and methods automatically translate mouse movements relative to an imaginary x-axis and y-axis into modifications in the threshold and scale (i.e., shape and size) of a boundary delineation, thereby permitting a system user/clinician to rapidly arrive at a desired ROI and/or VOI.

La définition de régions ou volumes d'intérêt et la délimitation d'objets d'intérêt sont des tâches importantes et effectuées fréquemment en imagerie clinique. Toutefois, les solutions d'aujourd'hui apportées à ces tâches prennent souvent beaucoup de temps au clinicien et sont difficiles à appliquer. Cette invention propose une autre approche qui est intuitive et fonctionne même pour des images bruitées où des approches de segmentation automatique échouent habituellement. Les systèmes et procédés de cette invention traduisent automatiquement les déplacements de la souris par rapport à un axe x ou un axe y imaginaire en modifications au niveau du seuil et de l'échelle (à savoir forme et taille) d'une délimitation, ce qui permet à l'utilisateur/clinicien du système d'arriver rapidement à une région et/ou volume d'intérêt.
