raidionicsrads 1.3.1

Raidionics reporting and data system backend (RADS)

Raidionics processing backend for performing segmentation and computation of standardized report (RADS)

The code corresponds to the Raidionics backend for running processing pipelines over MRI/CT scans. The segmentation of a few organs or tumor types, as well as the generation of standardized reports are included.
The module can either be used as a Python library, as CLI, or as Docker container.

Installation

pip install raidionicsrads
or
pip install git+https://github.com/dbouget/raidionics_rads_lib.git

Getting started

Notebooks

Below are Jupyter Notebooks including different examples on how to get started with the segmentation and reporting tasks, either over the brain or mediastinal area.

Notebook	Clinical target	Colab	GitHub
Preoperative Segmentation	:brain: Neuro
Preoperative Segmentation	:lungs: Mediastinum
Postoperative Segmentation	:brain: Neuro
Simple Reporting	:brain: Neuro
Surgical Reporting	:brain: Neuro
Batch processing	:brain: Neuro	-

CLI

raidionicsrads -c CONFIG (-v debug)

CONFIG should point to a configuration file (*.ini), specifying all runtime parameters, according to the pattern from blank_main_config.ini.

Python module

from raidionicsrads.compute import run_rads
run_rads(config_filename="/path/to/main_config.ini")

Docker

When calling Docker images, the --user flag must be properly used in order for the folders and files created inside the container to inherit the proper read/write permissions. The user ID is retrieved on-the-fly in the following examples, but it can be given in a more hard-coded fashion if known by the user.

:warning: The Docker image can only perform inference using the CPU, there is no GPU support at this stage.

docker pull dbouget/raidionics-rads:v1.3-py39-cpu

For opening the Docker image and interacting with it, run:

docker run --entrypoint /bin/bash -v /home/<username>/<resources_path>:/workspace/resources -t -i --runtime=nvidia --network=host --ipc=host --user $(id -u) dbouget/raidionics-rads:v1.3-py39-cpu

The /home/<username>/<resources_path> before the column sign has to be changed to match a directory on your local machine containing the data to expose to the docker image. Namely, it must contain folder(s) with images you want to run inference on, as long as a folder with the trained models to use, and a destination folder where the results will be placed.

For launching the Docker image as a CLI, run:

docker run -v /home/<username>/<resources_path>:/workspace/resources -t -i --runtime=nvidia --network=host --ipc=host --user $(id -u) dbouget/raidionics-rads:v1.3-py39-cpu -c /workspace/resources/<path>/<to>/main_config.ini -v <verbose>

The <path>/<to>/main_config.ini must point to a valid configuration file on your machine, as a relative path to the /home/<username>/<resources_path> described above. For example, if the file is located on my machine under /home/myuser/Data/RADS/main_config.ini, and that /home/myuser/Data is the mounted resources partition mounted on the Docker image, the new relative path will be RADS/main_config.ini.
The <verbose> level can be selected from [debug, info, warning, error].
