Analysing nerves in 3D

Project Description

X-ray phase contrast holographic nanotomography enables 3D imaging of nerves at high resolution, while covering a relatively large tissue volume. We developed an extensive pipeline for analyzing 3D images of nerves, including human peripheral nerves.

Our work includes:
– The study on three-dimensional architecture of human diabetic peripheral nerves described in the Scientific Reports paper

– Initializing nerve tracking using interactive dictionary-based segmentation

– Tracking the nerves by manually initializing the curve (Code), which uses layered-surface detection

– Approach for segmenting large number of nerves in 3D while preventing nerve overlap, described in CVPR paper
