Abstract(in English) Recently, multi-slice helical CT technology was developed. Unlike the conventional helical CT, we can obtain CT images of two or more slices with 1 time of scan. Therefore, we can get many pictures with a clear contrast images and thin slice images in one time of scanning. The purpose of this presentation is to evaluate the proposed automatic extraction branchi and pulmonary vein and artery on multi-slice CT images. The branchi is extracted by application with region growing technique and the morphological filters, 3D distance transformation. These results indicate that the proposed algorithm provides the ability accurately to develop an automatic extraction algorithm of the branchi on multi-slice CT images. In the further, we discuss initial examination is performed about the algorithm of pulmonary vein and artery on multi-slice CT images.
