Cube-Cut: Vertebral Body Segmentation in MRI-Data through Cubic-Shaped Divergences

no code implementations17 Apr 2014 Robert Schwarzenberg, Bernd Freisleben, Christopher Nimsky, Jan Egger

The Cube-Cut algorithm generates a directed graph with two terminal nodes (s-t-network), where the nodes of the graph correspond to a cubic-shaped subset of the image's voxels.

Determination, Calculation and Representation of the Upper and Lower Sealing Zones During Virtual Stenting of Aneurysms

no code implementations21 Oct 2013 Jan Egger, Miriam H. A. Bauer, Stefan Großkopf, Christina Biermann, Bernd Freisleben, Christopher Nimsky

In this contribution, a novel method for stent simulation in preoperative computed tomography angiography (CTA) acquisitions of patients is presented where the sealing zones are automatically calculated and visualized.
