Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: In dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI), segmentation of internal kidney structures is essential for functional evaluation. Manual morphological segmentation of cortex, medulla and cavities remains difficult and time-consuming especially because the different renal compartments are hard to distinguish on a single image.  propose to test a semi-automated method to segment internal kidney structures from a DCE-MRI registered sequence. As the temporal intensity evolution is different in each of the three kidney compartments, pixels are sorted according to their time-intensity curves using a k-means partitioning algorithm. No ground truth is available to evaluate resulting segmentations so a manual segmentation by a radiologist is chosen as a reference.  first evaluate some similarity criteria beten the functional segmentations and this reference. The same measures are then computed beten another manual segmentation and the reference. Results are similar for the two types of comparisons.
