Air holes inside the esophagus can be used to localize the esophagus in computed tomographic (CT) images. In this work we present a technique to automatically detect esophageal air...
One important application of image processing in medicine is to register tissue samples onto another. Registering these highly textured images with non-parametric methods sometimes...

Abstract. The segmentation and visualization of the esophagus is helpful during planing and performing atrial ablation therapy to avoid esophageal injury. Only very few studies hav...
Manual landmark positioning in volumetric image data is a complex task and often results in erroneous landmark positions. The landmark positioning tool presented uses image curvatu...
Abstract. In the last decades there has been tremendous research towards the design of fully automatic non-rigid registration schemes. However, apart from the ITK based implementat...

In some registration applications additional user knowledge is available, which can improve and accelerate the registration process, especially for non-rigid registration. This is ...
To assure a correct position and orientation of the patient’s eye in radiation treatment, a new approach in image-guided radiotherapy is used to determine the misalignment of the...
