摘要:
A method for automatic detection of obstructions in vasculature in an anatomical region is presented. The method includes partitioning the anatomical region into a plurality of sub-regions based at least in part on anatomical knowledge. Further, the method includes adaptively computing a threshold intensity value corresponding to each of the plurality of sub-regions. Additionally, the method includes extracting the vasculature in each of the plurality of sub-regions based on the corresponding computed threshold intensity value, where the extracted vasculature comprises a plurality of vessel segments. The method also includes detecting an obstruction in the extracted vasculature. Systems and computer-readable medium that afford functionality of the type defined by this method is also contemplated in conjunction with the present technique.
摘要:
Methods and systems for processing a set of images are described. In accordance with this disclosure, images are registered and an analysis is performed in view of one or more constraints (such as constraints based upon anatomical or physiological considerations). Weighting factors are determined based on the analysis. The weighting factors are used in subsequent processing of the registered (and/or unregistered) images and/or to formulate a visualization that conveys the degree of confidence in the motion estimation used in the registration process.

摘要:
A method of imaging is presented. The method includes reconstructing image data acquired at a plurality of time intervals to obtain a plurality of images. Further, the method includes generating a mean image using the plurality of images. The method also includes correcting motion in the mean image or the plurality of images or both the mean image and the plurality of images by iteratively determining convergence of the mean image or the plurality of images or both the mean image and the plurality of images to generate a converged mean image, a converged plurality of images, or both a converged mean image and a converged plurality of images.
