3 The aorta is the main artery of the body, is the larger vessel throughout the body and is characterized by a thick elastic wall. 1/65

8 The thoracic aorta can be affected by different diseases: Dissection Atherosclerosis Aortitis Aneurysm... 6/65
9 a) b) An aneurysm is local and permanent dilation of a portion of the vessel. This pathologic process affects the wall. 7/65
10 The aortic aneurysm is the most common pathology. Its incidence is de 6/ Risk of rupture 74 %. Its mortality ratio is 90 %. It is a degenerative disease. 8/65
11 When there is an aneurysm? The diameter of the aorta should not exceed a maximum diameter of 5.5 cm in the ascending aorta. For the descending aorta ( cm). The diameters have to be calculated in the normal planes to the wall of the vessel. 9/65
12 1 Thoracic Aorta 2 Comercial method (CHUS) 3 Aim. 4 Method. 5 Results. 6 Conclusions.
13 To diagnose a patient in the hospital: The patients are scanned with a CT. We obtain several images from inside the patient. 10/65
14 To check if a patient has an aneurysm a commercial software (General Electric)is used. This comercial software calculates the normal diameters. 11/65
15 But this comercial software has several drawbacks: The specialist must indicate several points within the vessel. The radiologist uses about 20 minutes to analyze a case. The result may depend on where the radiologist put the initial points 12/65
16 But this comercial software has several drawbacks: The specialist must indicate several points within the vessel. The radiologist uses about 20 minutes to analyze a case. The result may depend on where the radiologist put the initial points 13/65

28 After, the specialist approves several windows of the comercial program and gets this graph. Finally the specialist have to check if this chart is correct, and remove from the graph the branches of the aorta. 25/65

31 1 Thoracic Aorta 2 Comercial method (CHUS) 3 Aim. 4 Method. 5 Results. 6 Conclusions.
32 Aim Develop a system to segment and analyze the thoracic aorta. Without intervention of the specialist. System that provides reproducible results that can not get a specialist. 28/65
33 1 Thoracic Aorta 2 Comercial method (CHUS) 3 Aim. 4 Method. 5 Results. 6 Conclusions.
34 Method The method is based on the following steps: 29/65
35 Method We apply the Hough transform to determine the correct position of the thoracic aorta. 30/65
36 Method The Hough transform was applied at the most caudal slice of the descending aorta. 31/65
37 Method In this area, a slice s approximate shape is a circle. The Hough transform enables pre-set shapes to be found in an image. Hough transform involves convolving a circular mask with the image given. 32/65
38 Method Volumetric region-growing technique is used to segment the section Z 1 33/65
39 This volumetric region growing consists of the use of the 17 pixel neighbors corresponding to the previous and current slices for the calculation of the mean and variance. X Y Z 34/65
40 The transition from section Z 1 to section Z 2 is characterised by a increase in the size of the segmented region. This region can be approximated by an ellipse in which one of the foci will be used to segment the section Z 2. 35/65
41 Algorithm based on level set is used to segment the section Z 2 36/65
42 We use level set algorithm, because the aorta is connected to the heart, which is filled with blood. For this reason, the boundary between the heart and the aorta is fuzzy. 37/65
43 We applied a pre-processing stage to enhance the border of the image, and next applied a level set algorithm. (a) (b) (c) (d) 38/65
44 The basic idea underlying level set can be stated as follows: Given a 2D closed curve, its representation by a single 2D function is not possible. A solution consists of using a 3D function intersected by a plane at a given height. 39/65
45 Thoracic Aorta Comercial method (CHUS) Aim. Method. Results. Conclusions. Method So, we obtain this result of the segmentation on a clinical case with hybrid method of segmentation. 40/65
46 Method 41/65
47 Once we have the segmentation of the aorta, we need to calculate the normal plane of the vessel. For this reason, we need to calculate the vessel centerline. 42/65
48 Method The centerline is extracted using two different techniques: In sections descending aorta and ascending aorta, the centerline is calculated using the center of mass of the segmented region on each slice. CMX = i=n i=0 GL i x i GL i CMY = i=n i=0 GL i y i GL i (1) 43/65
49 In aortic arch iterative erosion of volumetric image data is applied. This erosion process involves four basic templates. Black symbol are object to be eroded and white symbol is the background. The result to erode corresponds to the centerline of the aortic arch. 44/65
50 Method 45/65
51 Method The points calculated in the previous step are interpolated to smooth the centerline. (B-Splines) 46/65
52 Method 47/65
53 Method The points of the centerline are used to determine the normal vectors corresponding to the cross-sections at each point on the line. 48/65
54 Method 49/65
55 Once normal planes are calculated. Variance-covariance matrix of these planes is calculated too. 50/65
56 Method The eigenvalues of the matrix are the vectors that indicate the orientation of the principal axes. Thus, to obtain the value of maximum and minimum diameters, we compute the size of segmentation in these directions. 51/65
57 Method To determine real dimensions of a vessel diameter, we applied a scale factor. The distance between the slices of the acquisitin system used. The different dimensions of the voxel. PCA is calculated in two dimensions and the vectors must be transformed to 3D. 52/65
58 1 Thoracic Aorta 2 Comercial method (CHUS) 3 Aim. 4 Method. 5 Results. 6 Conclusions.
59 Results The results have been divided into: Segmentation results Diameter results. 53/65
60 Thoracic Aorta Comercial method (CHUS) Aim. Method. Results. Conclusions. Segmentation Results Manual segmentation was considered the gold standard to compare with automatic method. Manual segmentation was performed by two expert vascular radiologists in clinical cases. Database was made of 32 clinical cases y images. 54/65
61 Thoracic Aorta Comercial method (CHUS) Aim. Method. Results. Conclusions. Segmentation Results Manual segmentation was performed in a graphics tablet equipped with software and a light pen for manually tracing borders. 55/65
62 Segmentation Results Only 5 % cases in both plots exceeded the confidence interval (± 1.96σ). There were no statistically significant differences. 56/65
63 The DSC factor was calculated to check the overlapping areas : DSC = 2 A B A B V(A) V(B) DSC error = 2 V(B) (2) (3) DSC=0 indicated that the two areas or volumes did not overlap, DSC=1.0 indicated complete overlap. Expert Asc. Arch Desc. Mean A % % % % B % % % % 57/65
64 Pearson coefficient and Intraclass coefficient were calculted to check the segmentation. Pearson coefficient was greater than 0,9 for each section of the aorta by radiologist A and 0,8 for radiologist B. Intraclass coefficient was between 0,8 and 0,85 in all regions of the aorta for each segmentation. 58/65
65 Diameters Results To check the results of diameters we designed this phantom to test the rotational invariance. 59/65
66 Results Diameters Phantom images were obtained by CT at different spatial projections (X,Y,Z). No statistically significant differences were found between the three subsets. 60/65
67 Thoracic Aorta Comercial method (CHUS) Aim. Method. Results. Conclusions. Results Diameters The diameter of the aorta was calculated with the two methods (the proposed and the commercial) in different clinical cases. Bland Altman plot Difference(COMERCIAL AUTOMÁTICO) Mean of All No statistically significant differences were found. 61/65
68 Maximum and minimum diameters were calculated in a normal section. Pictures a)c) were calculated by PCA, and the diameters of the pictures b)c) were calculated with multidirectional analysis. 62/65
69 PCA method avoids the branches of thoracic aorta. 63/65
70 Thoracic Aorta Comercial method (CHUS) Aim. Method. Results. Conclusions. Clinical case/ the volumetric reconstruction of segmentation/ graph of diameter. 64/65
71 1 Thoracic Aorta 2 Comercial method (CHUS) 3 Aim. 4 Method. 5 Results. 6 Conclusions.
72 Conclusions Alternative to manual segmentation. Highly reproducible, while manual segmentation is not reproducible. The method developed automates the calculation of the diameter of the aorta. Shown the potential of PCA for determination of diameters, and to prevent lateral branches. 65/65
