Extraction of samples from airway and vessel trees in 3D lung CT based on a multi-scale principal curve tracing algorithm

The extraction of airway and vessel trees plays an important role in the diagnosis and treatment planning of lung diseases. However, this is a challenging task due to the small size of the anatomical structures, noise, or artifacts in the image. The similar intensity values between the lung parenchy...
