Morphological

Perform morphological operations to modify segment shapes.

• The Morphological tool allows users to grow or shrink segments, which can be useful for refining the boundaries of segments or for adjusting their size to better fit the intended model.

Steps:

• Choose the Morphological tool from the tools panel.
• Choose Grow to expand the segment outward, or Shrink to contract it inward.
• Enter the margin size in pixels — the amount the segment boundary will expand or contract. The equivalent size in millimeters is still displayed below the value box for reference.
• Click Apply to update the segment boundaries.

Additional Information

Changing Margin Size

• Enter the margin size (in pixels) in the text box. The Grow and Shrink operations now work with pixels instead of millimeters. The mm conversion is still presented to the user below the value box, together with the connectivity used (e.g., "3x3x0 pixel (~2.3 x 2.3 x 0.0 mm) - 8- connected").

Morphological Operations

• Grow: Extends the segment's boundary outward by the specified margin (in pixels).
• Shrink: Reduces the segment's boundary inward by the specified margin (in pixels)..
