Atherosclerotic carotid wall segmentation in ultrasound images using Markov random fields
(2010)This work explores the segmentation of the intima-media complex (IMC) of the common carotid artery (CCA) wall for the evaluation of the intima media thickness (IMT) on B-mode ultrasound images. The IMT provides important ...

A fully automated method using active contours for the evaluation of the intima-media thickness in carotid US images
(2011)The thickness of the intima-media complex (IMC) of the common carotid artery (CCA) wall is important in the evaluation of the risk for the development of atherosclerosis. This paper presents a fully automated algorithm for ...

Global optimization for motion estimation with applications to ultrasound videos of carotid artery plaques
(2010)Motion estimation from digital video is an ill-posed problem that requires a regularization approach. Regularization introduces a smoothness constraint that can reduce the resolution of the velocity estimates. The problem ...

Segmentation of atherosclerotic carotid plaque in ultrasound video
(2012)The degree of stenosis of the common carotid artery (CCA) but also the characteristics of the arterial wall including plaque size, composition and elasticity represent important predictors used in the assessment of the ...
