A number of geometric active contour and surface models have been proposed for shape segmentation in the literature. The essential idea is to evolve a curve (in 2D) or a surface (i...
Biomedical imaging of large patient populations, both cross-sectionally and longitudinally, is becoming a standard technique for noninvasive, in-vivo studies of the pathophysiolog...
—In this paper, we propose a novel predictive model, active volume model (AVM), for object boundary extraction. It is a dynamic “object” model whose manifestation includes a ...
We are interested in the fully automatic delineation of the bladder in CT images in the frame of dose calculation for conformational radiotherapy. To this end we fit a series of ...
This paper presents a technique for the segmentation of anatomic structures in medical images using a topologically adaptable snakes model. The model is set in the framework of dom...
