Two-Steps Coronary Artery Segmentation Algorithm Based on Improved Level Set Model in Combination with Weighted Shape-Prior Constraints

Due to the complex topological structure of the coronary artery and the uneven distribution of the contrast agent, the angiography images are inevitably blurred and has low contrast, which causes great difficulty in process of segmentation. For this problem, a two-steps segmentation algorithm based...
