Blood vessel segmentation for head MRA using branch-based region growing

We propose an algorithm of blood vessel segmentation for MRA data in this paper. Generic region growing, as well as thresholding, is inappropriate for extracting the totality of the vessels on MRA data. This is because of the image properties of the MRA, where the intensity of each pixel in the bloo...
