Virtual colonoscopy detects polyps by navigating along a colon centerline. Complete colon segmentation based on computed tomography (CT) data is a prerequisite to the computation of complete colon centerline. There are two main problems impeding complete segmentation: overdistention/underdistention of colon and the use of oral contrast agents. Overdistention produces loops in the segmented colon, while underdistention may cause the segmented ...

Supine and Prone Colon Registration Using Quasi-Conformal Mapping
Wei Zeng; Marino, J.; Chaitanya Gurijala, K.; Xianfeng Gu; Kaufman, A. Visualization and Computer Graphics, IEEE Transactions on, 2010
In virtual colonoscopy, CT scans are typically acquired with the patient in both supine (facing up) and prone (facing down) positions. The registration of these two scans is desirable so that the user can clarify situations or confirm polyp findings at a location in one scan with the same location in the other, thereby improving polyp detection rates and reducing ...

Virtual colonoscopy (VC) is becoming a more prevalent method to detect and diagnose colorectal cancer. An essential component of using VC to detect cancerous polyps, especially in conjunction with computer-aided diagnosis, is the accurate calculation of the centerline of the colon. While the colon is often modeled as a simple cylinder, the amount of colonic distention may vary between patients ...

Detection of Colon Wall Outer Boundary and Segmentation of the Colon Wall Based on Level Set Methods
Van Uitert, R.; Bitter, I.; Summers, R.M. Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2006. EMBS '06. 28th Annual International Conference of the IEEE, 2006
Virtual colonoscopy (VC) has become a more prevalent and accepted method to diagnosis colorectal cancer. An essential element to detecting cancerous polyps using VC in conjunction with computer-aided detection is the accurate segmentation of the colon wall. While the inner boundary of the colon wall, the lumen-mucosal boundary, has often been the focus of previous colon segmentation work, detection of ...

Colon fold contour estimation for 3D visualization of colon structure from 2D colonoscopy images
DongHo Hong; Tavanapong, W.; Wong, J.; JungHwan Oh; de Groen, P.C. Biomedical Imaging: From Nano to Macro, 2011 IEEE International Symposium on, 2011
This paper presents a novel colon fold contour estimation technique, a crucial step toward fully-automated reconstruction of a 3D colon segment from an image captured from colonoscopy for automated labeling of unseen mucosa areas (where polyps or abnormal lesions may reside) during colonoscopy. The endoscopist can then manipulate the endoscope to inspect these unseen areas. The proposed technique estimates colon ...
