      Atherosclerotic carotid wall segmentation in ultrasound images using Markov random fields 

      Petroudi, Styliani; Loizou, Christos P.; Pattichis, Constantinos S. (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 

      Petroudi, Styliani; Loizou, Christos P.; Pantzaris, Marios C.; Pattichis, Marios S.; Pattichis, Constantinos S. (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 ...
