Schematic representation of hot spot detection and segmentation by SPECT in a 2D example. a Original image with two hot spots with their respective local maxima (“A” and “B”). b Result of region growing from local maxima “A” (borders with dashed contour). Note that the bottom of the smaller region is also absorbed as it met the region growing criteria. c Result of the region growing from local maxima “B” (borders with dashed contour). Note that comon voxels were excluded from both regions. d Segmented regions (black contour)
