VirtualDSA++: Automated Segmentation, Vessel Labeling, Occlusion Detection and Graph Search on CT-Angiography Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2020)
Computed Tomography Angiography (CTA) is one of the most commonly used modalities in the diagnosis of cerebrovascular diseases like ischemic strokes. Usually, the anatomy of interest in ischemic stroke cases is the Circle ...
UI-Net: Interactive Artificial Neural Networks for Iterative Image Segmentation Based on a User Model
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
For complex segmentation tasks, fully automatic systems are inherently limited in their achievable accuracy for extracting relevant objects. Especially in cases where only few data sets need to be processed for a highly ...
Shading Style Assessment for Vessel Wall and Lumen Visualization
(The Eurographics Association, 2021)
Current blood vessel rendering usually depicts solely the surface of vascular structures and does not visualize any interior structures. While this approach is suitable for most applications, certain cardiovascular diseases, ...
Improving Perception of Molecular Surface Visualizations by Incorporating Translucency Effects
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
Molecular surfaces are a commonly used representation in the analysis of molecular structures as they provide a compact description of the space occupied by a molecule and its accessibility. However, due to the high ...
MRI Hip Joint Segmentation: A Locally Bhattacharyya Weighted Hybrid 3D Level Set Approach
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
In this paper, we propose a novel hybrid level set approach that locally balances the combined use of both Gradient Vector Flow and region based energy cost function by means of the Bhattacharyya coefficient. The local ...
Visual Navigation Support for Liver Applicator Placement using Interactive Map Displays
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Navigated placement of an ablation applicator in liver surgery would benefit from an effective intraoperative visualization of delicate 3D anatomical structures. In this paper, we propose an approach that facilitates surgery ...
A Guided Spatial Transformer Network for Histology Cell Differentiation
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Identification and counting of cells and mitotic figures is a standard task in diagnostic histopathology. Due to the large overall cell count on histological slides and the potential sparse prevalence of some relevant cell ...
Exploration of Interventricular Septum Motion in Multi-Cycle Cardiac MRI
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Function of the heart, including interventricular septum motion, is influenced by respiration and contraction of the heart muscle. Recent real-time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can acquire multi-cycle cardiac data, ...
Bone Fracture and Lesion Assessment using Shape-Adaptive Unfolding
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
The assessment of rib bone fractures and lesions consists of many images that have to be thoroughly inspected slice-by-slice and rib-by-rib. Existing visualization methods, such as curved planar reformation (CPR), reduce ...
Application of Image Processing Functions for Brain Tumor Enhancement in Intraoperative Ultrasound Image Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Intraoperative ultrasound (iUS) imaging supports neurosurgeons significantly during brain tumor operations. At the beginning of the intervention the integration of the iUS image data within the navigation system guides the ...
