Aorta Segmentation with a 3D Level Set Approach and Quantification of Aortic Calcifications in Non-contrast Chest CT

Automatic aorta segmentation in thoracic computed tomography (CT) scans is important for aortic calcification quantification and to guide the segmentation of other central vessels. We propose an aorta segmentation algorithm consisting of an initial boundary detection step followed by 3D level set se...
