General Information

This project deals with post-processing and visualization of large CTA datasets of the peripheral extremities. The aim of this project is to develop a diagnosis tool for detection and classification of arterial diseases in routine clinical use. The goals cover:
  • Developing highly reliable visualization methods.
  • Speeding up post-processing by introducing automatic and semi-automatic tools.
  • Optimising the clinical workflow.
