We present novel approaches for fully automated extraction of tree-like tubular structures from 3-D image stacks. A 4-D Open-Curve Active Contour (Snake) model is proposed for sim...
Statistical shape modeling is widely used for medical image segmentation and interpretation. The main problem in building a shape model is the construction of a pointwise correspon...
