Web-based Boundary Segmentation and Pathology Validation Tool

The Web-based Boundary Segmentation and Pathology Validation Tool (PathVa) is developed to collect ground truth data on the digitized spine X-ray images from NHANES II. In addition, it enables verification of the segmented vertebral boundaries and collection of pertinent pathologies from the image as a whole, in addition to those local to the vertebral body. The tool is designed to allow content experts to login into our database and review image and pathology data and provide necessary updates. It is implemented as a Java application and is distributed using the Java Web Start technology. PathVa will continue to evolve based on expert suggestions.
