Avoidance and Correction of Deformities in Body Contouring

Seminars in Plastic Surgery, 2021
AbstractBody contouring procedures are highly impactful because of their potential to improve a patient's quality of life. These procedures, particularly when performed on patients following massive weight loss, may require secondary intervention to treat residual contour abnormalities.

Parametrically deformable contour models

Proceedings CVPR '89: IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2003
Segmentation using boundary finding is enhanced both by considering the boundary as a whole and by using model-based shape information. Flexible constraints, in the form of a probabilistic deformable model, are applied to the problem of segmenting natural objects whose diversity and irregularity of shape makes them poorly represented in terms of fixed ...

A new deformable contour method

Proceedings 10th International Conference on Image Analysis and Processing, 2003
In this paper, a new deformable contour method is presented and tested. The method incorporates several advantages and avoids the disadvantages of both the level set and the non-deterministic deformable contour methods. It takes the level set approach as a core procedure with an enhanced velocity control using a region growing-like function, and the ...

Analyzing and filtering contour deformation

Proceedings 1998 International Conference on Image Processing. ICIP98 (Cat. No.98CB36269), 2002
This article presents a general scheme for contour deformation analysis. It is based on a point-to-point multiresolution matching and an original representation of deformation. After a short presentation, we describe how this model allows us to detect and measure motion of articulated objects without any a priori knowledge. Then we show how a frequency

Adaptive parametrically deformable contours

1997
In this paper, we introduce an unsupervised contour estimation strategy based on parametrically deformable models. The problem is formulated in a (statistical) parameter estimation framework with the parameters of both the contour the and observation model (the likelihood function) being considered unknown.

SILICONE IMPLANTS FOR CONTOUR DEFORMITIES OF THE TRUNK

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1977
A follow-up study of 12 patients who had preformed silicone implants inserted for correction of body contour deformities (8 for pectus excavatum and 4 for soft-tissue deformities of the shoulder and pectoral region) has demonstrated the safety of this technique and its lack of significant early or late complications.

A geometrically deformable contour model

1997
In this paper, we present a discrete dynamic contour model which simulates a liquid expansion on homogeneous flat surface and the outlining of encountered obstacles. It is implemented as a radial expansion of an initial closed curve which determines a reference region.

Tracking of deformable contours by synthesis and match

Proceedings of 13th International Conference on Pattern Recognition, 1996
This paper considers the problem of motion tracking of deformable contours based on synthesis and match. We propose framework which encodes specific information on shape, deformation and motion of the target object. Using this information, the trackers synthesize contours that are most likely to describe the object in the current frame, and perform ...
