Automatic Extraction of Femur Contours from Hip X-Ray Images
Abstract. Extraction of bone contours from x-ray images is an important first step in computer analysis of medical images. It is more complex than the segmentation of CT and MR im...

An atlas-based deep brain structure segmentation method: from coarse positioning to fine shaping
Segmentation of deep brain structures is a challenging task for MRI images due to blurry structure boundaries, small object size and irregular shapes. In this paper, we present a ...

Globally Optimal Active Contours, Sequential Monte Carlo and On-Line Learning for Vessel Segmentation
In this paper we propose a Particle Filter-based propagation approach for the segmentation of vascular structures in 3D volumes. Because of pathologies and inhomogeneities, many de...
