Volumetric data, such as output from CT scans or laser range scan processing methods, often have isosurfaces that contain topological noise--small handles and holes that are not p...
Colon cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths per year in industrial nations. Virtual colonoscopy is a new, less invasive alternative to the usually practiced ...

3D scanners developed over the past several decades have facilitated the reconstruction of complicated engineering parts. Typically the boundary representation of a part is recons...
Abstract. Deformable models are by their formulation able to solve surface extraction problem from noisy volumetric images. This is since they use image independent information, in...
This paper presents a surface segmentation method which uses a simulated inflating balloon model to segment surface structure from volumetric data using a triangular mesh. The mod...
