boundary.check: Check if muscle fiber is close to boundary of muscle

In GoodFibes: Detection and Reconstruction of Muscle Fibers from diceCT Image Data

Check if muscle fiber is close to boundary of muscle

Description

An internal function that uses a concavehull to determine the bounds of the muscle based on grayscale values on each image and determines how many boundary voxels are within a set distance from the selected image point.

Usage

boundary.check(images, new.zero.image, new.startx, new.starty, bound.buffer, cutoff)

Arguments

images	A vector of image names in the working directory, created using list.files
new.zero.image	The image plane being considered
new.startx	The x coordinate of the considered point
new.starty	The y coordinate of the considered point
bound.buffer	The number of voxels a point can be distant from the boundary
cutoff	The grayscale value under which voxels will be treated as black

Details

For internal use only

Value

The number of boundary voxels within bound.buffer distance of the proposed point.
