An Orientation- and Paired-Edge-Aware Modified Frangi Filter for Semi-Automated Crural Fascia Segmentation in Ultrasound Images of Patients with Stroke
Quantitative assessment of the crural fascia using ultrasonography may provide clinically relevant information on peripheral musculoskeletal changes in patients with chronic stroke. However, accurate segmentation of this thin structure is challenging because of speckle noise, discontinuous boundaries, and competing hyp...
