Abstract

BACKGROUND: Vessel segmentation is a critical aspect of medical image processing, often involving vessel enhancement as a preprocessing step. Existing vessel enhancement methods based on eigenvalues of Hessian matrix face challenges such as inconsistent parameter settings and suboptimal enhancement effects across different datasets.
