Blood vessel is one of the important organ in diagnosis, therapy and surgery. For decision of the treatment strategy, grading of stenoses is important part in diagnosis of vascular disease such as arterial occlusive disease or thromboembolism. It is also important to understand the vasculature in minimally invasive surgery such as laparoscopic surgery or natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery. Precise segmentation and recognition of blood vessel regions are indispensable tasks in medical image processing systems. However, previous methods cannot extract thin blood vessel regions precisely. This paper presents a novel blood vessel segmentation method that can extract thin blood vessels with suppressing false positives. The proposed method utilizes not only Hessian analysis but also spherical harmonic function. The experimental result shows thin blood vessel (0.5mm in diameter, almost same as voxel spacing) can be extracted finely by the proposed method. |
