The aortic vessel tree is composed of the aorta and its branching arteries, and plays a key role in supplying the whole body with blood. Aortic diseases, like aneurysms or dissections, can lead to an aortic rupture, whose treatment with…
Accurate segmentation of coronary arteries is a pivotal process in assessing cardiovascular diseases. However, the intricate structure of the cardiovascular system presents significant challenges for automatic segmentation, especially when…
Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) is an intra-operative imaging modality that facilitates observing and appraising the vessel wall structure of the human coronary arteries. Segmentation of arterial wall boundaries from the IVUS images is not…
In Europe the 20% of the CT scans cover the thoracic region. The acquired images contain information about the cardiovascular system that often remains latent due to the lack of contrast in the cardiac area. On the other hand, the contrast…
Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the large arteries, presents a global health risk. Accurate analysis of diagnostic images, like computed tomographic angiograms (CTAs), is essential for staging and monitoring the…
Cardiac function is of paramount importance for both prognosis and treatment of different pathologies such as mitral regurgitation, ischemia, dyssynchrony and myocarditis. Cardiac behavior is determined by structural and functional…
Automatic and accurate segmentation of aortic vessel tree (AVT) in computed tomography (CT) scans is crucial for early detection, diagnosis and prognosis of aortic diseases, such as aneurysms, dissections and stenosis. However, this task…
Recent publications have shown that the segmentation accuracy of modern-day convolutional neural networks (CNN) applied on cardiac MRI can reach the inter-expert variability, a great achievement in this area of research. However, despite…
Medical imaging refers to the technologies and methods utilized to view the human body and its inside, in order to diagnose, monitor, or even treat medical disorders. This paper aims to explore the application of deep learning techniques in…
At present, coronary angiography is the well known standard for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease. Conventional coronary angiography is an invasive procedure with a small, yet inherent risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, potential…
The key manifestation of coronary artery disease (CAD) is development of fibroatheromatous plaque, the cap of which may rupture and subsequently lead to coronary artery blocking and heart attack. As such, quantitative analysis of coronary…
Medical image segmentation often requires segmenting multiple elliptical objects on a single image. This includes, among other tasks, segmenting vessels such as the aorta in axial CTA slices. In this paper, we present a general approach to…
Computed tomography (CT) generates a stack of cross-sectional images covering a region of the body. The visual assessment of these images for the identification of potential abnormalities is a challenging and time consuming task due to the…
Much of coronal hole (CH) research is focused upon determining the boundary and calculating the open flux as accurately as possible. However, the observed boundary itself is worthy of investigation, and holds important clues to the physics…
Ultrasound imaging plays an important role in the diagnosis of vascular lesions. Accurate segmentation of the vascular wall is important for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of vascular diseases. However, existing methods have…
Automatic segmentation of head and neck tumors plays an important role in radiomics analysis. In this short paper, we propose an automatic segmentation method for head and neck tumors from PET and CT images based on the combination of…
Aorta provides the main blood supply of the body. Screening of aorta with imaging helps for early aortic disease detection and monitoring. In this work, we describe our solution to the Segmentation of the Aorta (SEG.A.231) from 3D CT…
Radiological imaging offers effective measurement of anatomy, which is useful in disease diagnosis and assessment. Previous study has shown that the left atrial wall remodeling can provide information to predict treatment outcome in atrial…
Cardio-cerebrovascular diseases are the leading causes of mortality worldwide, whose accurate blood vessel segmentation is significant for both scientific research and clinical usage. However, segmenting cardio-cerebrovascular structures…
Purpose: Aortic dissections are life-threatening cardiovascular conditions requiring accurate segmentation of true lumen (TL), false lumen (FL), and false lumen thrombosis (FLT) from CTA images for effective management. Manual segmentation…
