Vessel Segmentation
Background and motivation
Accurate and rapid segmentation of microvasculature from three-dimensional (3-D) images is important for diverse studies in neuroscience, tumor biology, stem-cell niches, cancer stem cell niches, and other areas. Vessel segmentation algorithm presents a robust 3-D algorithm to segment vasculature that is image by labeling laminae, rather than lumenal volume. The signal is weak, sparse, noisy, non-uniform, low-contrast, and exhibits gaps and spectral artifacts, so adaptive thresholding & Hessian filtering based methods are not effective.
