3-D Reconstruction of Coronary Arteries from multiple different Angiographic views


To do this kind of research work, student need to understand the background of angiography.  Can be seen here, external co-supervisor the cardiologist expert, explaining the artery tree to Mr Mahmod so that he can understand on how to interpret angiography images from different view.
Paper Abstract:
Three dimensional reconstruction of the coronary artery vessel of the X-Ray angiography image is one of the  useful technique that  can effectively remedy the shortage angiographies imaging technique. There are lots of techniques and algorithms proposed for reconstruction coronary arteries in angiograms. But based on our knowledge, there is not any review paper to categorize and compare them together. In this paper, we have divided these techniques  into two major basic categories and propose a survey for the geometric model. We studied all the papers in the geometric model and found there are two classifications: (1) based on methods, Which has  subdivided into (a) Epipolar Constraint Methods (ECM). (b) Deformable-Model-Based Methods (DMM). (2) Based on input data, which has also subdivided into (a) calibrated data. (b) un-calibrated data. Finally, we made three tables, the first table was  to compare all algorithms in each category against criteria such as: angiography types, number of image view, Use phantom data, shape coronary artery output, whole tree output  and software implementation. The second table was to  brief geometric model Methods description, advantages and disadvantages. And the last table was to brief description of angiography types, advantages and disadvantages.
