Problems solved by technology

The calculation speed of this method is fast, because it is related to the threshold value, the robustness is poor
When the threshold range is too small, it is impossible to extract small branches of blood vessels. When the threshold range is too large, some tissues such as bones will be regarded as blood vessels, resulting in over-segmentation

Abstract

The invention provides a blood vessel extraction method. The method comprises steps of reading angiography data; adopting a region growing method on the data to obtain a first result; adopting a level set method to obtain a second result; performing morphological combination according to the first result and the second result; and performing blood vessel extraction of the angiography data. According to the invention, advantages of the region growing method based on the threshold and the gradient and the level set method based on the radius and the gradient are effectively combined, and region growing of bones and blood vessels are flexibly utilized to assist the blood vessel extraction, so that the complete extraction of blood vessels can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical image processing, in particular to a blood vessel extraction method. Background technique [0002] Angiography (CTA) is one of the important methods for diagnosing vascular diseases, and it is mainly used in clinical diagnosis and treatment of various vascular diseases, such as aneurysm, vascular stenosis, and vascular calcification. Segmenting blood vessels from other tissues is a critical step in angiographic techniques. Due to the overlap of CT values ​​of blood vessels and other tissues such as bones in CTA images, the current main blood vessel segmentation methods such as region growth and dynamic contours are easy to mistake bones and other tissues for blood vessel extraction, resulting in over-segmentation or small blood vessels as non-vessels Tissue removal, resulting in incomplete segmentation.
