Bronchopulmonary segments approximation using anatomical atlas
2007
Medical Imaging 2007: Image Processing
A new ray-tracing based image registration is developed for transferring the information from the atlas to a query image. ...
Traditionally, determining the segments requires segmentation and identification of segmental bronchi, which, in turn, require volumetric imaging data. ...
Similar to how radiologists map an image to a pictorial atlas, our registration is based on anatomical landmarks and interpolation. Lung root is used to initially align a query scan to the atlas. ...
