2 Purpose Computed tomography angiography (CTA) allows the detailed assessment of the peripheral arteries and diagnosis of stenosis. For the support of the radiologist with computer-assisted diagnosis, robust and time-efficient methods for the segmentation of vessel are required. We propose a robust segmentation framework for the peripheral arteries in CTA data by combining the highly accurate tracking method of Zambal et al. [1] with a segment linking similar to the method of Bauer et al. [2]. We present a client-server application that allows minimal waiting time for the user. Methods and Materials Our method: The approach consists of a three-step procedure. 1. Seed calculation: We estimate the axis of vessel cross sections at each voxel with a significant gradient magnitude by a first-hit ray casting approach. If the obtained vessel diameter is within the specified vessel scale, we calculate the perpendicular axis at the estimated centre point by using the same ray-casting method (see Fig. 1 on page 3). This leads to a set of vessel seeds (see Fig. 2 on page 3), defined by centre point, radius and orientation. 2. Segment tracking: For each obtained vessel seed, a vessel segment is tracked (see Fig. 3 on page 4). A cylindrical shape model is initially fitted at the vessel seed location using a histogrambased evaluation function. We iteratively apply the model at both ends of the segment until a termination criterion is reached. 3. Tree growing: The algorithm connects the pre-computed vessel segments at user-defined start points to obtain the desired artery trees of interest (see Fig. 4 on page 5). At each given start point, the closest vessel segment represents the initial vessel tree. We stepwise extend the vessel tree by a neighbouring vessel segment once the requirements of any Page 2 of 9
3 connection rule are fulfilled. We defined three types of connection rules: end-to-end points, end-to-inner points and inner-to-end points (see Fig. 5 on page 6 ). Client-server architecture: One of our goals is a system that can be used within an interactive radiology application, where computational results need to be done within a few seconds. Therefore the first two steps are pre-computed on the server-side of our system, as no user-interaction is required. On the client-application the interactive tree growing step is invoked after each position click of the user within the desired response time.

8 Results We tested our algorithm in 10 peripheral CTA datasets. The centre lines of important vessels were manually annotated. We achieved a centre line accuracy of 0.51mm, and a precision and recall of 75.96% and 81.48%, respectively. One click was performed for 6 datasets and two clicks were used for the other 4 datasets. Recall rates of up to 93% were achieved with a higher number of clicks. The average pre-processing time required for an average dataset with 1127 slices of resolution 512x512 was 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The total average time needed for the execution on the client-side was 4.3s. Conclusion Our vessel tracking method achieves high accuracy and is robust to different CTA protocols. The client-server architecture allows minimal waiting time for the radiologist. In most cases, one click is sufficient to segment the peripheral artery tree References [1] Zambal S, Hladuvka H, Kanitsar A, Bühler K.
