Acute aortic dissection is a life-threatening condition and must be diagnosed and treated promptly. For treatment planning the reliable identification of the true and false lumen i...
A fast and simple algorithm for approximately calculating the principal components (PCs) of a data set and so reducing its dimensionality is described. This Simple Principal Compo...
We present a real-time method for detecting deformable surfaces, with no need whatsoever for a priori pose knowledge. Our method starts from a set of wide baseline point matches be...
Abstract. Heart isolation (separating the heart from the proximity tissues, e.g., lung, liver, and rib cage) is a prerequisite to clearly visualize the coronary arteries in 3D. Suc...
