We present two approaches for automatically segmenting the spinal cord/canal from native CT images of the thorax region containing the spine. Different strategies are included to ...
We present a 3D segmentation technique of trabecular (cancellous) bones in CT images of Vertebral bodies (VBs). In order to be used for Bone Mineral Density (BMD) measurements, th...
This paper presents a semi-automated segmentation method for short-axis cardiac CT and MR images. The main contributions of this work are: 1) using two different energy functional...
We present a framework for rigid registration of a set of B-mode ultrasound images to a CT scan in the context of Radiotherapy planning. Our main focus is on deriving an appropriat...
A large number of test images and their "ground truth" segmentations are needed for performance characterization of the many image segmentation methods. In this work we ...
