A system and method for identifying a shape of an anatomical structure in an input image is disclosed. An input image is received and warped using a set of warping templates resulting in a set of warped images. An integral image is calculated for each warped image. Selected features are
A system and method for using learned discriminative models to segment a border of an anatomical structure in a three dimensional (3D) image is disclosed. A discriminative probability model is computed for each voxel in the 3D image. Thresholding is performed on each discriminative p
A method for detecting target objects in a three dimensional (3D) image volume of an anatomical structure is disclosed. A set of candidate locations in the image volume are obtained. For each candidate location, sub-volumes of at least two different scales are cropped out. Each sub-v
A system and method for defining and tracking a deformable shape of a candidate anatomical structure wall in a three dimensional (3D) image is disclosed. The shape of the candidate anatomical structure is represented by a plurality of labeled 3D landmark points. At least one 3D landmark
A method for segmenting a digitized image includes providing a digitized image comprising a plurality of intensities defined on a lattice of pixels, initializing a Bayesian prior probability and likelihood function for segmenting said image, decomposing said image into a union of a p
