Abstract:The blood flow velocity in the nailfold capillary is an important indicator of the status of microcirculation. The conventional manual processing method is both laborious and prone to human artifacts. A feasible way to solve this problem is to use machine learning to assist in image processing and diagnosis. Inspired by the Two-Stream Convolutional Networks, this study proposes an optical flow-assisted two-stream network to segment nailfold blood vessels. Firstly, we use U-Net as the spatial flow network and t… Show more
