In the context of vessel tree structures segmentation with implicit deformable models, we propose to exploit convolution surfaces to introduce a novel variational formulation, robust to bifurcations, tangential vessels and aneurysms. Vessels are represented by an implicit function resulting from the convolution of the centerlines of the vessels, modeled as a second implicit function, with localized...
In this paper, we present and study two local features for the tracking of vascular structures on 3D angiograms. The first one, Flux, measures the inward gradient flux through circular cross-sections. The second one, MFlux, introduces a non-linear penalization of asymmetric flux contributions to reduce false positive responses. Through a series of experiments on synthetic and real cardiac CT data,...
We propose a new Bayesian, stochastic tracking algorithm for the segmentation of blood vessels from 3D medical image data. Inspired by the recent developments in particle filtering, it relies on a constrained, medial-based geometric model and on an original sampling scheme for the selection of tracking hypotheses. A key property of this new sampling scheme is the ability to take into account a distribution...
