Vessel centerline extraction based on minimum cost path algorithm. Computer Engineering and Applications, 2015, 51 （2 ）：156-160. Abstract ：Applying the traditional minimum cost path algorithm to find the centerline through bend vessel yields a biased path which closes to the one side of vessel wall. To solve this problem, a centering method based on points is proposed. The centerline is extracted preliminary by minimum cost path algorithm, then the center point is corrected by gray Gauss- ian curve fitting, and a smoothed centerline is obtained finally by using cubic B-spline fitting to the discrete corrected points. The experimental results show that this method is robust to the noise and the extracted centerline is closer to the center of vessel at the areas of high curvature. Besides, this centerline is not sensitive to the user-defined points by apply- ing the centering method to correct the position of start-point and end-point.
