BREAK: Bronchi Reconstruction by gEodesic transformation And sKeleton embedding [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Airway segmentation is critical for virtual bronchoscopy and computer-aided pulmonary disease analysis. In recent years, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely used to delineate the bronchial tree. However, the segmentation results of the CNN-based methods usually include many discontinuous branches, which need manual repair in clinical ...

The utility of CT virtual bronchoscopy in the esophageal lung diagnosis: A case report

Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2022
The esophageal lung is a variant of the communicating bronchopulmonary foregut malformation (CBPFM). It needs a high index of suspicion for diagnosis because it is a rare condition and does not have specific symptoms.

NaviAirway: a Bronchiole-sensitive Deep Learning-based Airway Segmentation Pipeline [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Airway segmentation is essential for chest CT image analysis. Different from natural image segmentation, which pursues high pixel-wise accuracy, airway segmentation focuses on topology. The task is challenging not only because of its complex tree-like structure but also the severe pixel imbalance among airway branches of different generations.
