# 🫁 Lungs segmentation in mice CT scans

We provide a [YoloV8](https://docs.ultralytics.com/) model for the segmentation of the lungs region in mice CT scans. The model was trained on 2D slices and can be applied slice by slice to produce 3D segmentations.
[[`Installation`](#installation)] [[`Model weights`](#model)] [[`Usage`](#usage)]
This project is part of a collaboration between the [EPFL Center for Imaging](https://imaging.epfl.ch/) and the [De Palma Lab](https://www.epfl.ch/labs/depalma-lab/).
## Installation
We recommend performing the installation in a clean Python environment. Install our package from PyPi:
```sh
pip install mouselungseg
```
or from the repository:
```sh
pip install git+https://github.com/EPFL-Center-for-Imaging/mouselungseg.git
```
or clone the repository and install with:
```sh
git clone git+https://github.com/EPFL-Center-for-Imaging/mouselungseg.git
cd mouselungseg
pip install -e .
```
## Model weights
The model weights (~6 Mb) are automatically downloaded from [this repository on Zenodo](https://zenodo.org/records/13268683) the first time you run inference. The model files are saved in the user home folder in the `.mousetumornet` directory.
## Usage
**In Napari**
To use our model in Napari, start the viewer with
```sh
napari -w mouselungseg
```
Open an image using `File > Open files` or drag-and-drop an image into the viewer window.
**Sample data**: To test the model, you can run it on our provided sample image. In Napari, open the image from `File > Open Sample > Mouse lung CT scan`.
Next, in the menu bar select `Plugins > Lungs segmentation (mouselungseg)` to start our plugin.
**As a library**
You can run a model in just a few lines of code to produce a segmentation mask from an image (represented as a numpy array).
```py
from mouselungseg import LungsPredictor
lungs_predict = LungsPredictor()
segmentation = lungs_predict.predict(your_image)
```
**As a CLI**
Run inference on an image from the command-line. For example:
```sh
uls_predict_image -i /path/to/folder/image_001.tif
```
The command will save the segmentation next to the image:
```
folder/
├── image_001.tif
├── image_001_mask.tif
```
To run inference in batch on all images in a folder, use:
```sh
uls_predict_folder -i /path/to/folder/
```
This will produce:
```
folder/
├── image_001.tif
├── image_001_mask.tif
├── image_002.tif
├── image_002_mask.tif
```
