Automated landmarking of bends in vascular structures: a comparative study with application to the internal carotid artery

Abstract Automated tools for landmarking the internal carotid artery (ICA) bends have the potential for efficient and objective medical image-based morphometric analysis. The two existing algorithms rely on numerical approximations of curvature and torsion of the centerline. However, input parameter...
