Automatic measurement of carotid diameter and wall thickness in ultrasound images

Carotid vessel ultrasound imaging is a reliable noninvasive technique to measure the arterial morphology. Lumen Diameter (LD), intima-media thickness (IMT) of the far wall, and plaque presence can be reliably determined using B-mode ultrasound. In order to measure the carotid IMT as well as any othe...
