Intensity and First-Order Image Features

Feature Description
Imin Minimum intensity value in the 3D ROI
Imax Maximum intensity value in the ROI
Imean Mean intensity value in the ROI
SD Variation from the average intensity in the ROI
Skewness Measure of the symmetry of the intensity distribution
Kurtosis Measure of the shape of the peak of the intensity distribution
Coeff Var Normalized measure of the dispersion of the ROI (coefficient of variation)
TGV Total summed intensity
I30 Intensity ranging from lowest to 30% highest intensity volume
I10-I90 Intensity ranging from lowest to 10% highest intensity volume minus intensity ranging from lowest to 90% highest intensity volume
V40 Percentage volume with at least 40% intensity
V70 Percentage volume with at least 70% intensity
V80 Percentage volume with at least 80% intensity
V10-V90 Percentage volume with at least 10% intensity minus percentage volume with at least 90% intensity
Sphericity Measure of the spherical shape (roundness) of the ROI
Convexity Measure of the spiculation of the ROI (ratio of true ROI volume to convex ROI volume)

Denotes features that were derived from intensity volume histogram [10].
