A Nonparametric Shape Prior Constrained Active Contour Model for Segmentation of Coronaries in CTA Images
We present a nonparametric shape constrained algorithm for segmentation of coronary arteries in computed tomography images within the framework of active contours. An adaptive scale selection scheme, based on the global histogram information of the image data, is employed to determine the appropriat...
