Vessel Segmentation with Automatic Centerline Extraction Using Tubular Tree Segmentation
The study of the coronary vessel structure is crucial to the diagnosis of atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases, which together account for ∼ 35% of all deaths in the United States per year. Vessel Segmentation from CTA data is challenging because of non-uniform image intensity along the vessel, and the branching and thinning geometry of the vessel tree. We present a novel method fo...
متن کاملAutomatic Centerline Extraction of Irregular Tubular Structures Using Probability Volumes from Multiphoton Imaging
In this paper, we present a general framework for extracting 3D centerlines from volumetric datasets. Unlike the majority of previous approaches, we do not require a prior segmentation of the volume nor we do assume any particular tubular shape. Centerline extraction is performed using a morphology-guided level set model. Our approach consists of: i) learning the structural patterns of a tubula...
متن کاملRobust Centerline Extraction from Tubular Structures in Medical Images
Extraction of centerlines is useful to analyzing objects in medical images, such as lung, bronchia, blood vessels, and colon. Given the noise and other imaging artifacts that are present in medical images, it is crucial to use robust algorithms that are (1) noise tolerant, (2) computationally efficient, (3) accurate and (4) preferably, do not require an accurate segmentation and can directly op...
متن کاملFlux driven automatic centerline extraction
We present a fast, robust and automatic method for computing centerline paths through tubular structures for application to virtual endoscopy. The key idea is to utilize a skeletonization algorithm which exploits properties of the average outward flux of the gradient vector field of a Euclidean distance function from the boundary of the structure. The algorithm is modified to yield a collection...
متن کاملAutomatic 3D Face Extraction from Raw Scanned Triangle Mesh
Many state-of-the-art human face digitizing techniques or commercial 3D face scanners output dense facial triangle mesh surfaces. Most of these meshes contain some unwanted outliers, irregular boundaries, or some other extraneous parts, for instance hair, shoulders ∗ Corresponding author.
