ABSTRACT:
Systems, methods and computer products for automatically extracting automatically cardiac calcifications and obtaining a centerline in the tracking. Exemplary embodiments include a method of cardiac diagnostics, the method including obtaining coronary tree segmentation to obtain cardiac volume information, splitting the volume into portions to obtain an adjacency graph, computing a mean of a sub-volume of the volume, obtaining gray value segmentation of the sub-volume, defining a centerline of a blood vessel that avoids calcifications within the blood vessel and detecting an actual centerline of the blood vessel and enhancing lumen visualization of the blood vessel.
