摘要:
Stent viewing is provided in medical imaging. Stent images are provided with minimal or no user input of spatial locations. Images showing contrast agent are distinguished from other images in a sequence. After aligning non-contrast images, the images are compounded to enhance the stent. The contrast agent images are used to identify the vessel. A contrast agent image is aligned with the enhanced stent or other image to determine the relative vessel location. An indication of the vessel wall may be displayed in an image also showing the stent. A preview images may be output. A guide wire may be used to detect the center line for vessel identification. Various detections are performed using a machine-trained classifier or classifiers.

Real-time marker detection in medical imaging of a stent may be provided. A plurality of frames of image data may be obtained. A plurality of candidate markers for the stent may be determined in the plurality of frames of image data. One or more markers from the plurality of candidate markers may be detected. The detecting may be based on automatic initialization using a subset of frames of image data from the plurality of frames of image data. The detecting may be performed in real-time with the obtaining.
摘要:
Stent marker detection is automatically performed. Stent markers in fluoroscopic images or other markers in other types of imaging are detected using a machine-learnt classifier. Hierarchal classification may be used, such as detecting individual markers with one classifier and then detecting groups of markers (e.g., a pair) with a joint classifier. The detection may be performed in a single image and without user indication of a location.

摘要:
A method and system for vessel segmentation in fluoroscopic images is disclosed. Hierarchical learning-based detection is used to perform the vessel segmentation. A boundary classifier is trained and used to detect boundary pixels of a vessel in a fluoroscopic image. A cross-segment classifier is trained and used to detect cross-segments connecting the boundary pixels. A quadrilateral classifier is trained and used to detect quadrilaterals connecting the cross segments. Dynamic programming is then used to combine the quadrilaterals to generate a tubular structure representing the vessel.

A method and system for extracting coronary vessels fluoroscopic image sequences using coronary digital subtraction angiography (DSA) are disclosed. A set of mask images of a coronary region is received, and a sequence of contrast images for the coronary region is received. For each contrast image, vessel regions are detected in the contrast image using learning-based vessel segment detection and a background region of the contrast image is determined based on the detected vessel regions. Background motion is estimated between one of the mask images and the background region of the contrast image by estimating a motion field between the mask image and the background image and performing covariance-based filtering over the estimated motion field. The mask image is then warped based on the estimated background motion to generate an estimated background layer. The estimated background layer is subtracted from the contrast image to extract a coronary vessel layer for the contrast image.

摘要:
A method and system for detecting and tracking an ablation catheter tip in a fluoroscopic image sequence is disclosed. Catheter tip candidates are detected in each frame of the fluoroscopic image sequence using marginal space learning. The detected catheter tip candidates are then tracked over all the frames of the fluoroscopic image sequence in order to determine an ablation catheter tip location in each frame.
