Segmentation of carotid vessel wall using U-Net and segmentation average network [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Segmentation of carotid vessel wall is required in vessel wall volume (VWV) and local vessel-wall-plus-plaque thickness (VWT) quantification of the carotid artery. Manual segmentation of the vessel wall is time-consuming and prone to interobserver variability. In this paper, we proposed a convolution neural network to segment the common carotid artery (

A region and category confidence-based multi-task network for carotid ultrasound image segmentation and classification [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The segmentation and classification of carotid plaques in ultrasound images play important roles in the treatment of atherosclerosis and assessment for the risk of stroke. Although deep learning methods have been used for carotid plaque segmentation and classification, two-stage methods will increase the complexity of the overall analysis and the ...
