It can either do quick network extraction or an accurate centerline computation and branch extraction between designated endpoints. Extract Centerlineĭetermine centerlines in a vessel tree from an input segmentation or model node. To segment multiple branches, you can use Segment Editor module. Place "Seeds" points inside vessels and place "Stoppers" points in areas to avoid (where segmentation leaked out to). This module can segment a single vessel branch of a vessel tree from an image (either unprocessed or vesselness-filtered can be used). This module can be used to pre-process image data to make vessel segmentation easier. Image processing operation that increases brightness of tubular structures and suppresses other shapes (plates and blobs). SlicerVMTK extension provides the following modules - listed in in Vascular Modeling Toolkit category in the module list. Install 3D Slicer, start 3D Slicer, and in the extension manager install SlicerVMTK extension. VMTK extension is available for recent 3D Slicer versions (Slicer-4.10 and above). Short demo video of vessel segmentation and centerline extraction is available here: This extension makes the Vascular Modeling Toolkit (VMTK, ) available in 3D Slicer ( Features include vessel tree segmentation and centerline extraction.
