Automatic carotid centerline extraction from three-dimensional ultrasound Doppler images.Vessel lumen centerline extraction is an important issue for the intra-operative guidance of endovascular instruments; furthermore, vessel centerline is often used as a reference position in many hemodynamic studies, especially in carotid arteries.  Furthermore, the method is completely automatic and therefore suitable for the aforementioned purposes.
