Learning spatiotemporal statistical shape models for non-linear dynamic anatomies [PDF]
Numerous clinical investigations require understanding changes in anatomical shape over time, such as in dynamic organ cycle characterization or longitudinal analyses (e.g., for disease progression). Spatiotemporal statistical shape modeling (SSM) allows

Linking statistical shape models and simulated function in the healthy adult human heart. [PDF]
Cardiac anatomy plays a crucial role in determining cardiac function. However, there is a poor understanding of how specific and localised anatomical changes affect different cardiac functional outputs.

Probabilistic Evaluation of 3D Surfaces Using Statistical Shape Models (SSM) [PDF]
Inspecting a 3D object which shape has elastic manufacturing tolerances in order to find defects is a challenging and time-consuming task. This task usually involves humans, either in the specification stage followed by some automatic measurements, or in

Enabling supra-aortic vessels inclusion in statistical shape models of the aorta: a novel non-rigid registration method [PDF]
Statistical Shape Models (SSMs) are well-established tools for assessing the variability of 3D geometry and for broadening a limited set of shapes. They are widely used in medical imaging due to their ability to model complex geometries and their high ...

Improved accuracy of breast volume calculation from 3D surface imaging data using statistical shape models. [PDF]
BackgroundThree-dimensional (3D) scanning is an established method of breast volume estimation. However, this method can never be entirely precise, since the thoracic wall cannot be imaged by the surface scanner.

Automatic construction of statistical shape models using deformable simplex meshes with vector field convolution energy [PDF]
Background In the active shape model framework, principal component analysis (PCA) based statistical shape models (SSMs) are widely employed to incorporate high-level a priori shape knowledge of the structure to be segmented to achieve robustness.
