Segmentation of the common carotid intima-media complex in ultrasound images using active contours
(2012)The segmentation of the intima-media complex (IMC) of the common carotid artery (CCA) wall is important for the evaluation of the intima media thickness (IMT) on B-mode ultrasound (US) images. The IMT is considered an ...
