Abstract. We present a method for finding the boundaries between adjacent regions in an image, where “seed” areas have already been identified in the individual regions to be...

Standard image based segmentation approaches perform poorly when there is little or no contrast along boundaries of different regions. In such cases, segmentation is largely perfor...

In this paper, we propose a new framework for active contour and surface models. Based on the concepts of the elastic interaction between line defects in solids, this framework de...

Accurate and robust estimation of the three-dimensional left ventricular geometry and deformation has important clinical implications for better diagnosis and understanding of isch...
Cardiopulmonary imaging is a key tool in modern diagnostic and interventional medicine. Automated analysis of MRI or ultrasound video is complicated by limitations on the image qua...
In this paper, we present a novel deformable model for soft tissue simulation in a real-time manner. The innovative model consists of two submodels: the surface one and the interna...
We present a novel framework to exert topology control over a level set evolution. Level set methods offer several advantages over parametric active contours, in particular automat...
—We present a novel approach to efficiently compute thickness, correspondence, and gridding of tissues between two simply connected boundaries. The solution of Laplace’s equat...

In non-rigid image registration problems, it can be difficult to construct a single cost function that adequately captures concepts of similarity for multiple structures, for examp...

Abstract. A method for the non-rigid, multi-modal, registration of volumetric scans of human hands is presented. PET and MR scans are aligned by optimising the configuration of a ...
