The segmentation and analysis of blood vessels has received much attention in the research community. The results aid numerous applications for diagnosis and treatment of vascular...
— Ultrasound images segmentation is a difficult problem due to speckle noise, low contrast and local changes of intensity. Intensity based methods do not perform particularly we...

In recent years, researchers have proposed to introduce statistical shape knowledge into level set based segmentation methods in order to cope with insufficient low-level informati...
In this article we address the problem of blood flow simulation in realistic vascular objects. The anatomical surfaces are extracted by means of Level-Sets methods that accurately ...
