Vascular Segmentation Using "Snake" Transforms And Region Growing
Guy M. Besson · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 1989
A new vascular segmentation technique is introduced, which is based on a morphological image processing tool, dilation, and a modification of a recently developed class of image algorithms, snake transformations. Results are presented that enlighten the nature and properties of the technique, and applications are discussed.
