Nonrigid registration with corresponding points constraint for automatic segmentation of cardiac DSCT images

Nonrigid registration with corresponding points constraint for automatic segmentation of cardiac DSCT images

Abstract Background Dual-source computed tomography (DSCT) is a very effective way for diagnosis and treatment of heart disease. The quantitative information of spatiotemporal DSCT images can be important for the evaluation of cardiac function. To avoid the shortcoming of manual delineation, it is i...
