Multi-atlas segmentation of biomedical images: A survey
Open accessAbstract
Multi-atlas segmentation (MAS), first introduced and popularized by the pioneering work of Rohlfing, et al. (2004), Klein, et al. (2005), and Heckemann, et al. (2006), is becoming one of the most widely-used and successful image segmentation techniques in biomedical applications. By manipulating and utilizing the entire dataset of "atlases" (training images that have been previously labeled, e.g., manually by an expert), rather than some model-based average representation, MAS has the flexibility to better capture anatomical variation, thus offering superior segmentation accuracy. This benefit, however, typically comes at a high computational cost. Recent advancements in computer hardware and image processing software have been instrumental in addressing this challenge and facilitated the wide adoption of MAS. Today, MAS has come a long way and the approach includes a wide array of sophisticated algorithms that employ ideas from machine learning, probabilistic modeling, optimization, and computer vision, among other fields. This paper presents a survey of published MAS algorithms and studies that have applied these methods to various biomedical problems. In writing this survey, we have three distinct aims. Our primary goal is to document how MAS was originally conceived, later evolved, and now relates to alternative methods. Second, this paper is intended to be a detailed reference of past research activity in MAS, which now spans over a decade (2003-2014) and entails novel methodological developments and application-specific solutions. Finally, our goal is to also present a perspective on the future of MAS, which, we believe, will be one of the dominant approaches in biomedical image segmentation.

Consensus segmentation using multiple atlases may make segmentation more robust to sporadic registration errors/imperfections.
“In recent years, methods that use the multi atlas label fusion framework have obtained state-of-the-art accuracy, showing that consensus segmentation using multiple atlases may significantly improve the segmentation accuracy, while making it also more robust to sporadic registration errors/imperfections (Iglesias and Sabuncu, 2015; Warfield, 2017).”

The Historical Introduction describes combining labels from multiple registered atlases by majority voting, which supports the idea of consensus segmentation. But §2.3 (Registration; page unavailable) does not establish greater robustness to sporadic registration errors: it cautions that poor candidates from suboptimal registrations can worsen fusion. The claimed robustness is plausible, but is not stated in the cited passages. (LLM, conf=0.78)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
