This paper describes and demonstrates the e ectiveness of several metrics for data level comparison of direct volume rendering (DVR) algorithms. The focus is not on speed ups from...
In this paper, a method is described to automatically estimate the visible body region of a computed tomography (CT) volume image. In order to quantify the body region, a body coo...

A guidewire is a medical device inserted into vessels during image guided interventions for balloon inflation. During interventions, the guidewire undergoes non-rigid deformation...
Dynamic cardiac metrics, including myocardial strains and displacements, provide a quantitative approach to evaluate cardiac function. However, in current clinical diagnosis, larg...
Most variational active contour models are designed to find the “desirable” local minima of data-dependent energy functionals with the hope of avoiding undesirable configurat...
