Segmentation of Carotid Arteries from 3D and 4D Ultrasound Images

Segmentation of Carotid Arteries from 3D and 4D Ultrasound Images

This thesis presents a 3D semi-automatic segmentation technique for extracting the lumen surface of the Carotid arteries including the bifurcation from 3D and 4D ultrasound examinations. Ultrasound images are inherently noisy. Therefore, to aid the inspection of the acquired data an adaptive edge pr...
