Tissue composition from CT scan

Hello, I have no idea if this is the right place to ask this, but I'm at my wit's end.

I'm a Master's student in Animal Science, and my thesis is about the carcass composition of lambs. My supervisor had the veterinarian perform CT scans on 10 lamb legs, and he gave me the 10000 DICOM files. He wants me to determine the percentage of muscle, fatty tissue and bone in the legs.

However, this is way out of my field (I studied animal welfare in my degree for pity's sake), I have no idea how to do that, and when I asked him, he didn't know either. Just told me to figure it out. I have RadiAnt installed but I don't know if it does what I want; I think Sliceomatic would but it's super expensive.

I would really be thankful if anyone could just point me in the right direction. I have no idea what to do. I don't know what measurements to take, I don't know what calculations to do, and nobody at my university will help me.

Thank you so much for any help anyone can give me.

AI for radiology - A survey

Hello folks! We are a group of students from Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm University (Sweden). We are conducting a short survey (it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time) to evaluate an Artificial Intelligence framework for evaluating medical imaging and, in particular, the effect that explainability can have on clinicians' attitudes toward it. We welcome anyone who interacts with medical imaging to take our survey, so please, feel free to do it even if you are still a student or an intern! If you know someone who works in the field, please, pass them the survey. It would help us greatly. https://bit.ly/RTEX_survey Thanks in advance to all of you! submitted by /u/francozzz [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/Radiology/comments/r2ratp/ai_for_radiology_a_survey/
