Tensor Voting Based Vascular Bifurcation Detection in CT Images of Lung
Sun Ruifang, Shi Jingli, Xuan S. Yang · International Journal of Radiology and Imaging Technology · 2018
The accurate detection of vascular bifurcations is not helpful for pulmonary vascular disease diagnosis, but vital in (Computed Tomography) CT image analysis and processing of lung. We propose a tensor voting based method for vascular bifurcation detection in CT image of lung, which a vessel enhancement method is firstly proceeding to initially extract vessel structure, on which we perform ball voting with the pixels.
