  • Liver segmentation on CT and MR using laplacian mesh optimization 

    Chartrand, Gabriel; Cresson, Thierry; Chav, Ramnada; Gotra, Akshat; Tang, An; De Guise, Jacques (Institute of electrical and electronics engineers, 2016-11-18)
    Objective: The purpose of this paper is to describe a semiautomated segmentation method for the liver and evaluate its performance on CT-scan and MR images. Methods: First, an approximate 3-D model of the liver is initialized from a few user-generated ...

  • A novel method for the 3-D reconstruction of scoliotic ribs from frontal and lateral radiographs 

    Seoud, Lama; Cheriet, Farida; Labelle, Hubert; Dansereau, Jean (2009-09-29)
    Among the external manifestations of scoliosis, the rib hump, which is associated with the ribs' deformities and rotations, constitutes the most disturbing aspect of the scoliotic deformity for patients. A personalized 3-D model of the rib cage is ...

  • Quantification and 3D localization of magnetically navigated superparamagnetic particles using MRI in phantom and swine chemoembolization models 

    Li, Ning; Tous, Cyril; Dimov, Ivan P.; Cadoret, Dominic; Fei, Phillip; Majedi, Yasamin; Lessard, Simon; Nosrati, Zeynab; Saatchi, Katayoun; Häfeli, Urs O.; Tang, An; Kadoury, Samuel; Martel, Sylvain; Soulez, Gilles (Institute of electrical and electronics engineers, 2022-02-15)
    Objective: Superparamagnetic nanoparticles (SPIONs) can be combined with tumor chemoembolization agents to form magnetic drug-eluting beads (MDEBs), which are navigated magnetically in the MRI scanner through the vascular system. We aim to develop a ...

  • Semiautomatic detection of scoliotic rib borders from posteroanterior chest radiographs 

    Plourde, Frédéric; Cheriet, Farida; Dansereau, Jean (2011-09-15)
    3-D assessment of scoliotic deformities relies on an accurate 3-D reconstruction of bone structures from biplanar X-rays, which requires a precise detection and matching of anatomical structures in both views. In this paper, we propose a novel semiautomated ...
