Abstract:The estimation of vessels’ centerlines is a critical step in assessing the geometry of the vessel, the topological representation of the vessel tree, and vascular network visualization. In this research, we present a novel method for obtaining geometric parameters from peripheral arteries in 3D medical binary volumes. Our approach focuses on centerline extraction, which yields smooth and robust results. The procedure starts with a segmented 3D binary volume, from which a distance map is generated using the Euc… Show more
