Abstract. Three dimensional medial paths or curve skeletons (CS) are an essential component of any virtual endoscopy (VE) system, because they serve as flight paths for a virtual ...
This paper presents a new method to find minimal paths in 3D images, giving as initial data one or two endpoints. This is based on previous work [1] for extracting paths in 2D ima...
