This project aims to recreate the results produced by two papers:
- Coronary Artery Centerline Extraction in Cardiac CT Angiography Using a CNN-Based Orientation Classifier
- Discriminative Coronary Artery Tracking via 3D CNN in Cardiac CT Angiography
I implemented a discriminative coronary artery tracking method (DCAT) that utilizes a convolutional neural network and a tracking algorithm to automatically extract the coronary artery centerlines in a cardiac CT angiography
