Abstract

This paper is about computed tomography angiography based vessel exploration. Large image sequences of the lower extremities are investigated in a clinical environment. Two different approaches for peripheral vessel diagnosis dealing with stenosis and calcification detection are introduced. The paper presents an automated vessel-tracking tool for curved planar reformation. A user interactive segmentation tool for bone removal is proposed.
