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...
Abstract. Virtual colonoscopy is a minimally invasive technique allowing early detection of colorectal polyps. A path or centerline through the colon can be very useful to perform ...
Abstract. The development of a 3D image guidance environment will significantly enhance the performance of minimally invasive robotically assisted cardiac surgery. We have previous...

In this paper we introduce a novel edge-based, implicit approach for single object segmentation in 3D images. From a couple of curves, traced by the user on the object to be segme...
Abstract. We introduce a novel implicit approach for single object segmentation in 3D images. The boundary surface of this object is assumed to contain two known curves (the constr...
